Description
RUSSA is a student-run organization on campus that unites, supports and promotes Russian language and culture within the Queen’s community. RUSSA aims to provide a welcoming environment in which Queen’s students can:
- Learn, discuss, and be introduced to Eastern European culture, history, and current events
- Celebrate and embrace Eastern European culture
- Develop friendships with others who share a common background
- Learn and practice their Russian speaking skills
- Share their experiences with students interested in pursuing studies (e.g. exchange programs) in Eastern Europe
- Extend their support network (specifically, we aim to help Russian-speaking students to become part of Canadian society)
