OK. We know. You’ve wondered and don’t want to ask. How do you say our school’s name?
Full confession here: I’m the assistant dean of the Daytime program and an alumus, but I also wasn’t sure how to say it when I applied!
Is it Foo-qua? Fu-qway? Few-ca? We’ve heard every version, including pronunciations we can’t repeat!
It’s one of the most common questions people wonder, so we made the video below to help. Spoiler alert—it’s pronounced “Few-qwa.”
A bonus for saying it right is that our alumni will love you! They take pride in the correct pronunciation. Also, a fun fact: the voices in the video are all connected with our school. We’re running a 48-hour contest on our Facebook page to guess who they are. If you think you know, feel free to guess. The contest winner gets a basketball signed by Coach K.
I’ll update this post once we reveal the voices involved. Until then, best wishes from “Few-qwa!”
