Not long ago, RSM Dean Jaroslav Skira had the pleasure of meeting up with former The Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky Institute of Eastern Christian Studies Advisory Committee chair Pavlo Grod, and current member Bishop Brian Bayda of Toronto, as well as the President of the Ukrainian Catholic University Met (Український католицький університет) Borys Gudziak. One of the speakers at the gala was a recent RSM doctoral graduate, Marichka Ivaniv Lonchyna. Dean Skira last visited the Ukrainian Catholic University this past fall to participate in a conference organized by the Ukrainian Catholic Synod of Bishops.
