Officers and Contact Information

A six-member board manages the day-to-day activities of the Slovak Studies Association, helping to coordinate conference panel applications and managing the newsletter and website. If you have any comments or questions or need assistance on questions related to Slovak Studies, please contact one of the people below

Things to Come:
The revision of this website will reduce the need for members to channel their thoughts and concerns, their questions and offers of assistance through the board. The board's focus will then shift to plans for annual lectures and meetings and the fund-raising necessary to pay for them.
