    Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear in your life? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?

    What a ridiculous presentation. Over 50% of the talk focuses on slides which are not captured in the video. Is it too much to ask in this age of technical marvels to be able to move the camera angle so people not in the room can see what the speaker is discussing? The National Hellenic Museum is based in Chicago, not some poor underprivileged or remote area. Why even bother to record something which wastes the time of anyone wishing to watch the presentation after the fact. Shame on you NHM for not coordinating better with your speaker to plan for proper recording equipment, equipment operators, and in general thinking of posterity.

    Panelists (in program order): Peter Kilpatrick joined Illinois Tech as provost and senior vice president for academic affairs on August 1, 2018. He previously served as a professor and McCloskey Dean of Engineering at the University of Notre Dame. He is the author of more than 100 refereed journal articles in the areas of colloid and interfacial science, emulsion science, and molecular self-assembly, particularly as they apply to energy and to bioseparations. According to Google Scholar, his work has been cited more than 7,000 times, largely in the areas of emulsions and interfacial and colloidal phenomena. He is also the holder of 12 patents and has been actively engaged in two startups. Kilpatrick received his A.B. in chemistry from Occidental College (summa cum laude) in 1978 and his Ph.D. in chemical engineering from the University of Minnesota in 1983. He served on the faculty of North Carolina State University in chemical engineering from 1983 to 2007, the final eight-plus years as the department head. He served as chairperson of the Global Engineering Deans Council from 2015-2017. Kevin Harrington is Professor Emeritus of Architectural History at the IIT. He has also been a visiting professor at the University of Illinois Chicago, the Brandenburg Technological University in Germany, the University of Texas Austin and the Escola da Cidade in São Paulo, Brazil. He majored in history at Colgate University and studied the History of Architecture & Urban Development at Cornell University. Between college and graduate school he served as an officer in the United States Air Force. His publications and research focus on Chicago's architectural and urban development in relation to modern architecture and the modern city, especially considering the ways Chicago is typical or unique. Aside from his activity in numerous organizations Kevin mentors PhD students at the CoA and is an active Mies Society Member and participant with his wife, Elaine. Michael Lykoudis has served as Professor of Architecture at Notre Dame since 1991. From 2004 to 2020 he served as the School’s first Dean following two years as Chair and eight years as Assistant and Associate Chair. He has devoted his career to the building, study and promotion of traditional architecture and urbanism as a way of addressing the critical issues of our time facing the built and natural environment. Over the past 30 years, Lykoudis was the principal organizer of the School’s traditional and urbanist curriculum and established several new initiatives. He brought about the renewal of the School’s graduate program with the objective of doubling its enrollment, increasing its offerings and developing its focus on classical architecture and urbanism. Lykoudis developed The Richard H. Driehaus Prize at the University of Notre Dame, the largest architectural prize in the world that is given annually. A graduate of Cornell University’s School of Architecture, Lykoudis earned his Master of Architecture degree from the University of Illinois with a concentration in business and real estate. He has lectured at universities around the country and abroad as well as to professional and civic organizations. He has directed his own practice since 1983 in Athens, Stamford, and South Bend. Carol Ross Barney, FAIA, HASLA has been in the vanguard of civic space design since founding Ross Barney Architects in 1981. With a career that spans nearly 50 years, Carol has made significant contributions to the built environment, the profession, and architectural education. From the early days in the United States Peace Corps planning National Parks in Costa Rica to recent collaborations with City Governments, Carol has relentlessly advocated that excellent design is a right, not a privilege. Her body of work, being almost exclusively in the public realm, represents this ethos and occupies a unique place within the panorama of contemporary architecture. Carol’s projects vary in type and scale, but always uphold a deep commitment to the quality of life. This commitment manifests into spaces that enrich the metropolitan experience; buildings that are environmental stewards, embodying and showcasing sustainability; and spaces that inspire young, curious minds to learn, invent, and break boundaries. At the forefront for equity in the architectural profession, Carol has long sought to move beyond her gender as a contributing factor or hindrance to success. But it’s not enough just to blaze the trail, Carol continually teaches, mentors, and empowers young architects to contribute their ideas and designs to progress the profession. Moderator: Reed Kroloff is dean of Illinois Institute of Technology College of Architecture and a nationally renowned leader in the fields of architecture, urbanism, and design. He has managed top design programs, edited the architectural profession’s leading publication, spoken at gatherings such as TED and the Aspen Design Conference, and advised architects and clients on some of the most significant projects of the last 20 years, leading the New York Times to describe him as “the man with the list at architecture’s party.” Kroloff is also a founding principal of jones|kroloff, a unique advisory practice that develops strategy for clients in the architecture and design industry, and also guides architect selection processes and competitions. Kroloff previously served as director of Cranbrook Academy of Art and Art Museum, and dean of Tulane University School of Architecture (which he led through Hurricane Katrina and its recovery). Kroloff is a recipient of the American Academy in Rome’s 2003 Rome Prize Fellowship.

    The reason so many of the Greek schools are disappearing is because major Greek migration to the US ended during our parents generation in the late 70s and early 80s. My dad and his generation were probably the last to come over in that time period. This means the number of Greek children available to fill up Greek school classes dried up. The 1990s were probably the end of the golden age of Greek schools. When I was in school during that time period, I didn't have a single pupil in Greek school whose family had been in America for decades. Not one. Maybe those types of families who possibly had more money sent their children to Socrates or another school which taught Greek full time instead of during night or weekend. Every single student in my and my siblings classes came from families who arrived in America during the 70s and early 80s. Once our generation completed our lessons, schools started to dry up and close. The pool of young Greek children had dried up. Today many people are having intermarriage so some don't send their children to Greek school, plus many Greek adults are not having children. Other than Athena Greek school, I believe the only other options for Greek school are those associated with the churches. What will the future bring? Maybe this is the first step of the Greek American community dying out. Maybe the future of the Greek American community will simply be English speaking followers of the Orthodox faith if the religion can still hold on to enough people to fill their parishes.

    Thank you, very interesting. However, I can't say I heard Homer's song through a biography of the German- Jewish Parry, as presented in this lecture, a master of revising classical scholarship in showing, 16,000+ lines of poetry could in fact, be memorized. But you failed to mention in this resinging & retelling, in fact, the audience already KNEW the basic stories from hundreds of years earlier, they knew the endings! That's important, because Homer's genius was in telling the story's lessons & themes . . . The human condition, from a heroic warrior culture, to one of reflection & human value. Of seeing the enemy, quite differently. A unique position as with other things like philosophy & science & democracy, all these unique things that came out of ancient Greece. And nowhere else. I believe Parry was probably murdered. He & his wife were in LA to rescue his wealthy mother-in-law from grifters, perhaps they or a lover, or Orthodox believers, or being 1935, who knows. But we all know what wealth can impose . . . I read Parry began carrying a gun on his trips to YUGOSLAVIA, but why to LA to see family, very mysterious. Maybe the wife did it. The best lecture I've ever heard on Homer, the most inspiring I've ever heard, is from a retired physician, at a medical school of all places! Scranton University in California, a lecture give to medical school teachers of all people! Homer? czcams.com/video/z6fXRwDUjF4/video.html As their school finds value of the Humanities in the most intense field of science & medical training, one of the highest suicide rates these pressured students, this physician has heard Homer's song like no other! It's wonderful, perhaps you could interview him, Homer & healing arts, go figure, lol. czcams.com/video/z6fXRwDUjF4/video.html It has to be said that rediscovery of ancient Greek works into the West, from the Arabs in Spain and in the Eastern Roman Byzantium Empire, as these works of Plato, Aristotle, Euclid, and yes, Homer, dribbled into Italy & Europe, translated & copied as far away as monks in Irish monastaries, these ancient Greek works jump-started inquiry and science and in general, the European Renaissance, eventually the Enlightment and all that followed. It's been said that Western Civilization is like a Family, whose Father was Greek, whose Mother was Hebrew, and they packed up the family & moved to Rome. The 2 pillars of the West, the Bible & Homer. A question posed at this very interesting university, in Scranton. And with all the extremism & religious fundamentalism going on today, maybe Homer's song, not taught adequately taught anymore in K-12, but churches & synagogues & mosques, on every street corner so-to-speak, and wars on terror & geopolitical goings on, well, maybe it's time HOMER's stories make another come-back, big-time! And tell us, without enforced "belief" systems, take it as-is, never "cannonized" but a basis, what exactly human nature, human behavior, and the human condition requires, and is all about. (How about a book on Mrs. Einstein, Albert's first wife who he abandoned with two sons one mentally retarded, who also studied PHYSICS, and probably contributed if not downright produced the theories of relativity... She was a Gentile woman from Austria...)

    Very interesting, thank you. I am, however, surprised that this notion of fasting, of discipline, of ritual & tradition, of historical use & change, of "getting close to God", did not include "ecstacy". Those altered states of mind, which fasting certainly promotes. Or of dance, like whirling Turkish dervishes, or of great cathedral architecture or the Hagia Sophia, meant to stun, or the beads & repeated mantras, meditations, even prayers! Altered States. In ancient Athens, during the Dionysian Festival of Theatre, the Athenians would form in a long procession stopping along the way to drink wine & dance in "ecstacy" getting out of themselves, then proceed to the theatre for 3 days of plays ... Their preparations for such performances. And review what something like Eripedes' BACCHAE had to tell them.... Or the Mystery Religions, where perhaps hallucigens were used, perhaps the real forbidden fruit, lol, but especially the one at Elysia, near Athens, near a cave where Hades had snatched Demeter's daughter, goddess of the wheat, agriculture, and rebirth in the spring... Why were so many people, Greeks, Romans, from all across the Mediterranean, why were they drawn to such a religion, year after year, centuries old, millinia by the time Christianity closed it forever. It's said that the Elysian Mystery Religion, was the first to mention resurrection. The influences are replete on Christianity. Mixing an imported Judean Monotheism with a very Dionysian experience. My Protestant church upbringing had communion every Sunday. A Central belief. As a time of intense self-reflection, foregiveness, prayer. But based on what Jesus said, do this every time Christians gather together. Simple. But it's in the history of science annals, that the Protestant Reformation, unintended consequences, allowed natural philosophers (scientists) to escape church authority, to claim for themselves, knowledge of the world, this world, in more "toleration.". And we all know where philosophy began, lol. The real "diaspora" may be what the Greeks did so uniquely, in every aspect of human endeavor, whether science, religion, politics, literature, epics & drama, democracy, all of it! And sprinkled with a lot of that uniquely Greek word PHILOTIMO. :)

    VERY WELL PRESENTED DR. AL! Your love of literature and history, your affable persona that radiated like the Greek sun way back when you were demonstrating fearless recklessness in daring to court our daughter are still the omnipresent attributes they were back in those mists of time. Voula and John's son has done them proud. Keep up the excellent work

    Interesting. But I wonder, when was coal discovered in southern Utah. Also, how did the earliest Greek immigrants co-exist with the Mormans? Were they involved with the companies that moved in their territories, how did the castlegate disaster happen? Any man-made indications? Did any Greeks convert to Mormonism? My ancestor was a kid, baby, unsure, younger than 8 years, 6 in other sources, of Alexander Fancher, an experienced cattle driver in the West... But I'm referring to the MOUNTAIN MEADOW MASSACRE. S. Utah. A large, wealthy, 1,000s herds, wagon train headed to California. 1857. Was this prior to Greeks arriving? Before coal? The final slaughter of men, women, & children, was September 11th. Their bodies left to be eaten & rot. 120+/-people murdered by Mormon militia. The largest massacre of American citizens in peacetime until the Oklahoma City bombing, then 9-11 of course. The Mormons used the Piute Indians to attack, & painted their faces red, but the final slaughter was achieved when morman militia offered "help", shot the men in the head, & used knives & swords on the women & young kids.
