Arriving in Lviv we are immediately struck by the diversity of languages, cultures, religions, and narody. It is this diversity that originally attracted us to study this area of the world, no matter what part of it we study. The warm hospitality at Ukrainian Catholic University and the city of Lviv invites us to enjoy the beautiful campus for our convention sessions and, afterwards, to stroll historic streets for their contemporary musical and culinary delights.
