A Letter from our President
Jan. 31 [UNA-OKC] -- For our local chapter, 2009 was
a very good year. One of our biggest priorities this
year was to build stronger relations with local
student chapters. We now have representation
from chapters at a number of colleges across the
state, including Southwestern State University,
University of Oklahoma, University of Central
Oklahoma, Oklahoma City University, and Oklahoma
State University.
The objective of this effort has been to build
awareness of the UN among the next generation
of leaders. READ MORE . . . .
