The UNA-USA Student Alliance is seeking new members.  Tens of
thousands of students are working with UNA-USA on a wide range of
activities to promote the work of the United Nations.  We hope you will
join us through our new Student Alliance in 2008.

Through the Student Alliance, a nationwide network of motivated
individuals is being formed -- student advocacy groups, international
affairs clubs, and Model UN teams.  Student Alliance members stand
poised to collectively sound their voices and make their opinions heard
amongst their peers, in their communities and across the nation.  Does
this sound like you?  

Joining the Student Alliance is easy.  The cost is only $10 / year.  
And, in 2008, our chapter will offer a $500 scholarship to an active
Student Alliance member.  Watch for an announcement soon.  For
more information about the Student Alliance … CLICK HERE.  
Chapter members are always welcome to attend our board meetings, which
generally take place on the second Monday of each month at 5:30pm.  Each of our
directors is proud to serve the members of our chapter as an unpaid volunteer.  Our
chapter operates under the able leadership of our president, Robert H. Cox.  He is
assisted by Lowell Adams, Vice President for Programs; Firouz Mollaian, Treasurer;
Nancy Musselman, Vice President for Membership; and Bill Bryant, Secretary.   For
more information, see our Board Page ... HERE.
