Mark Arey, a devoted Philhellene, was a priest for 34 years of the Greek-Orthodox Archdiocese of America. He served for seven years in different positions at the Archdiocese including as Director of the Department of Interchristian and Interorthodox Relations. He also served as spokesman for St. Nicholas church at Ground Zero and he had many times appeared in the American Press including the New York Times. His love of wisdom – philosophy, biblical Greek, the art of translation, and story-telling remain undiminished. He now spends his writing books.

Kathryn B. Yatrakis is the retired Dean of Academic Affairs in Columbia College and the Senior Associate Vice President in the Arts and Sciences. As Dean of Academic Affairs, she was primarily responsible for overseeing the curriculum of the College, especially the Core Curriculum. Before assuming administrative positions, she was a member of the faculty of the Barnard Department of Political Science and Director of the Urban Studies program. She continued to teach the Urban Studies Junior Colloquium on Contemporary Urban Issues every spring semester, and her academic areas of specialty include American politics, political participation, and the politics of cities.

A Success Story... In the Making

10/18/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
A decade ago a group of Greek-American business leaders met to discuss an idea about the establishment of a new model Greek-American organization unlike others: one shying away from Church, politics, and foreign policy, yet one that embraces Hellenism’s values, ideals, and culture with the hopes of perpetuating the same. The group recognized that there is a clear nexus between the inherited heritage and legacy and impact on individual and collective successes, happiness, balance, and well-being. Moreover, the group believed that it is imperative to pass on this heritage and legacy to future generations, albeit as a symbol of the recognition of the sacrifices and efforts their forebears faced to ensure their dreams for all of us came true. 

The envisioned organization would comprise accomplished individuals of the highest caliber in terms of integrity, character, and dedication. They would be invited to join and in doing so would find opportunities to meet with one another, to celebrate the hallmark joie de vivre of a collective Greek spirit and work towards developing programs that support efforts that really make a difference.
