On October 22 the representation of the authorities of our Association had the honor of meeting Dr. B. Bix Aliu, US Vice-Ambassador in Warswa, Poland. In addition to Mr. Ambassador, the American side was represented by: Dan Hastings, Embassy cultural attaché, and Monika Rysiukiewicz from the public affairs section, who looks after the Alumni. The Association was represented by members of the Board: Monika Piątkowska, Jan Gasparski and Rafał Pieprzyk, as well as Sławomir Kamiński from the Steering Committee.

The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the current cooperation of the US Embassy in Poland and the Alumni Association, deepen mutual relations, including the organization of joint initiatives, and to develop new methods of action for the future – activities that will help promote exchanges and study visits funded by the United States government, support Polish participants in these exchanges in their further development and consolidate good relations between Polish and American nations.
