Florida named Tammi Reiss the 12th head coach of the Gators women's basketball program, tapping a three-time All-American and proven program-builder who led Rhode Island to its first NCAA Tournament in 30 years and has NCAA-level success as a player and coach at Virginia, Syracuse, and San Diego State.
Pew Research Center surveyed 33,486 people in 25 countries to ask what makes them proud of their country. Across the board, pride most often centers on the people and diversity of a nation, with culture and lifestyle also frequently cited. Some countries highlight political systems or the economy (e.g., democracy and welfare in Sweden; governance in Germany; economic development in Japan and Indonesia), while others emphasize arts, cuisine, or national heritage (France, Italy, Mexico, Spain). Negative or critical feelings appear in several places (e.g., parts of Greece, Hungary, the U.K., and the U.S.), and in the U.S. pride in freedoms often coexists with partisan divides. Overall, pride reflects a mix of people, culture, institutions, and resources, with country-specific nuances.
