About the Club

The TU Russian Club is an organization designed to introduce Russian culture to students studying Russian, or those that are interested in Russia. We are affiliated with the University of Tulsa and are part of the Student Association.

What we do

The Russian Club does a variety of activities including conversational groups, Russian cuisine and cooking, tea parties, Russian movies, and special presentations. Perhaps the most famous Russian poet alive today, Yevgeny Yevtushenko, who teaches at the University of Tulsa, has presented his new collections of poetry at Russian Club meetings.

Although the club is designed for students studying Russian, all students are welcome to attend. Feel free to contact the president to learn about upcoming events.
