Thanks to a generous donation, the study of Ukrainian language, literature, and culture is now a permanent part of a Cambridge education. Rory Finnin (Lecturer in Ukrainian Studies, Director of Cambridge Ukrainian Studies), Simon Franklin (Head of the School of Arts and Humanities), and Emma Widdis (Head of the Department of Slavonic Studies) made the announcement in Kyiv on 24 September 2010. News of the permanent endowment was carried by over 50 print-, radio-, television-, and internet-media outlets in Ukraine, from Glavred to Radio Svoboda and ICTV.
