Did you know that the development of color terms in languages follows a remarkably consistent pattern across different cultures? Linguistic research has shown that languages tend to acquire color terms in a specific order. The earliest color distinctions are typically between dark and light. As languages evolve, they usually add terms for red, then green and yellow (or yellow and green), followed by blue, and finally, more specific colors such as brown, purple, pink, orange, and gray. This pattern suggests a universal aspect of human perception and cognition, revealing how

our understanding and description of the world around us have developed over time!

COOL FACT

A Note from the Editor: Hello, everyone! We have many changes awaiting us in the coming months as we prepare for our

upcoming move. For those located in IFC, SASE leadership advises that you take home at least one box of personal items at the end of every week. Administrative tasks can be tedious, though, so if you need someone to organize, scan, or shred files, please don’t hesitate to ask me! Same with digitizing files - if you need pages separated, combined, re-organized, or redacted, then send them my way and I’ll see it gets completed. On another note, I’ve been encouraged to share that I have successfully completed my comprehensive exams. With only one semester left of my master’s degree program, all that remains is to finish and defend my thesis. I’m very much looking forward to completing my degree and kickstarting the next phase of my academic and professional journey. (Don’t worry, I’ll be around for a while yet!) I’m also incredibly grateful for all the support and encouragement I’ve received from colleagues, mentors, and dear ones. Anyway, thank you for reading this edition of the newsletter and for your continued support for the School of Arts, Sciences & Education here at Ivy Tech Indianapolis. Please look forward to the next edition!
