SUSK has many talented alumni that continue to be active members of the Ukrainian community across Canada—as executive directors of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress (UCC), or leaders in organizations working with youth, politics, arts and culture, and sports. Others help SUSK coordinate programs for our current student members, including study-abroad and scholarship opportunities. Click here to register as a SUSK Alumni!
