OVERVIEW

"TWESE" means Unity in Rwandese.
With its inception in 1991, TWESE, the Organization of African Students and Friends of Africa was established as a haven for students with African interests, and as an avenue to better educate the entire Rutgers community on African issues.
These goals have been achieved through various activities and events. Generally, TWESE's regular meetings are the most efficient means by which issues on Africa and Africa in the Diaspora can be discussed and debated. The special events are used as other means of creating awareness among the Rutgers community.
TWESE also presents opportunities for students to meet with their peers and establish relationships that go beyond their college experience. In addition, the alumni network is very strong and come from a diverse background of work with Fortune 500 companies. From financial support to job recruiters, these graduated members help out extensively in our community.
TWESE's memebrship is open to the entire community. There is a semester due charge of $5, which allow for reduced admission fees to certain events, free transportation to any TWESE-sponsored event off-campus, and much more.
Meetings are held Teusday evenings from 8:30PM to 9:30PM at the Paul Robeson Cultural Center located beside the Busch Campus Center.
