Maksimas

On a shining Tuesday morning, I met with Maksimas (Max) Milta at one of the colorful tables on Beinecke Plaza. Max is here for his first year of a Masters in European and Russian Studies, through the Graduate School's MacMillan Center. He is focused on studying sanctions, and, more specifically, how to make them work!

Hello humans who follow OISS, and welcome back to a new season of #HUMANSOFOISS. You may have seen our gallery wall pictures last week: those are photos of some of the wonderful people who make up our international community here at Yale. Over the course of this semester, most Fridays, you will be able to find a new story featuring a new international student or scholar here on @yaleoiss.Maybe you know them, maybe you don't, but once you've read their #story, I'm sure you will want to get to know them!

We have another wonderful #humansofOISS this Friday for you from Katerina Kargioti

Hi! I am a sophomore at Pauli Murray college studying Applied Physics. I am from a small village called Zevgolatio in northern Greece. This year I have been involved with the podcasting desk at the YDN and Yale Undergraduate Quantum Computing Group (YuQC).

John Taylor

Vanakam! Have you witnessed this beautiful orchestration yet? Yale's 54-bell carillon was cast by John Taylor Bellfoundry in Loughborough, England, and installed in New Haven in 1922. These bells are played by the Guild of Carillonneurs which is made up entirely of Yale students! Next time you hear these beautiful bells on campus, take a moment to appreciate their beauty and look up at Harkness!
