Our History
The MIT Russian Club / Russian Connection was established in 2007. You can find here what we have done.
2008-2009 was a difficult year for the club, when several officers graduated. Even though MIT is a very difficult place to study, the three remaining officers continued supporting the club. The MIT Russian Club truly appreciates the officers who maintained the club during that year.
