On 29th January, Prof. Sławomir Żółtek, the University of Warsaw Vice-Rector for Students and Quality of Teaching, will clear up any doubts that might appear regarding the organisation of classes in the upcoming semester during an online meeting.

On 18th January, the UW Rector issued an ordinance regulating education in the summer semester (starting on 22nd February). The winter semester is coming to an end, followed by the examination session. The organisation of classes in the summer semester still raises many questions.

Prof. Slawomir Żółtek, the Vice-Rector for Students and Quality of Teaching, will strive to explain how education after the winter break will look.

The event will take place on 29th January, at 11:00, on the UW profile on Facebook.

Students can submit their questions by filling in the form which is active until 26th January, at 18:00. Prof. Sławomir Żółtek will answer selected questions during the meeting.

The online meeting will be conducted in Polish. When it is finished, a full transcript of the broadcast in Polish and English will be available.

April 29: Feminism and Gender Representations in Buffy the Vampire Slayer

April 23, 2025

Join us for a lecture by Agata Zygardowicz on Buffy and her iconic impact on American television: “Feminism and Gender Representations in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” Buffy the Vampire Slayer occupies a significant space in the history of feminist media, portraying themes of 1990s third-wave feminism, postfeminist aesthetics, and television genre for teens. This lecture examines how the series both reflects and critiques feminist ideals, offering a protagonist who is emotionally vulnerable, fashion-conscious, and physically powerful at the same time.
