The first Russian Tea of the new academic year was well attended, as always. Once again the Russian Club-sponsored event attracted students and faculty from the diverse College community. The event featured the usual Tsar Nikolai Tea, закуски (zakuski), and, of course, Professor Crnković’s designer coasters, the final in the seasonal birch tree series. The Russian Club and REES are looking forward to next month’s Tea, featuring more homemade goodies and that incomparable Slavic camaraderie.
