"Ukrainian Students,

Last year, board members from numerous Ukrainian Student Clubs at Universities across the country came together for what was to become the first general meeting of a newly founded SUSTA, a national Ukrainian Student Group. Since that initial meeting last April, we have worked diligently to put together an organization that will outlive our time as students at our respective universities.

As many of you know, SUSTA was an organization in the 60s and 70s that served as the umbrella organization of Ukrainian Clubs in America, similar to SUSK in Canada. Since that time, the organization fell apart and little if anything can be found about it. We have taken the initiative to give Ukrainian students the same opportunities that were given to our parents when they had SUSTA.

This April, we are planning to hold a national conference consisting of a wide variety lectures, films and panel discussions relating to contemporary Ukrainian issues and the role of Ukrainian students. Along with the conference we will be holding a summit of SUSTA leaders in order to have elections for the next governing board and to further expand the organization. We are looking for students to partake in this conference and the expansion of SUSTA; if you would like to learn and network, with other ukrainians, as well as help preserve and build your community, this event is for you. The SUSTA Conference 2007 will be held at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ the 21st of April and hosted by the Rutgers Ukrainian Students Club. The topics of the lectures and panels will range from wide array of subjects; it will most certainly be of interest to anyone who cares about future of Ukrainian affairs.

Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,

SUSTA and the Rutgers Ukrainian Students Club"
