SUMMARY:A Conversation with Ukraine 
DESCRIPTION:
 Emily Rutkowski and Bob Wood \n
 Bob Wood is a retired 
 high school teacher, a Community College 
 professor, an author, and a world traveler. He 
 graduated from MSU in 1980.   He lives in 
 Spring Lake, MI.  He recently returned from 
 five weeks in Ukraine, where he traveled alone.  He 
 weaved camouflage nets, transferred supplies, 
 and worked with orphans and IDPs.  He 
 also was provided an opportunity to teach for 
 two weeks at Ukrainian Catholic University 
 in Lviv, Ukraine, which has since led to him 
 being hired at UCU as a visiting professor for 
 Spring Term. \n
 Emily Rutkowski is a 2012 graduate 
 of Michigan State's James Madison College. 
 She attended the University of Michigan 
 law school and practiced at an international 
 firm in Silicon Valley. Emily too spent five 
 weeks in Poland and Ukraine, with most of the 
 time in Kyiv, where she volunteered with humanitarian 
 organizations and met and learned 
 from fellow artists. She is a budding screenwriter 
 and musician. In Michigan, she leads the 
 CRC's Government Advocacy and Outreach team. \n
 Emily 
 and Bob will introduce you to a Ukraine 
 that you just don't find on CNN.  They traveled 
 with and got to know folks on the ground.  The 
 people whom you will be introduced 
 to, through video and photographs, and stories, 
 are strong and soft people of all ages, people 
 who are just like you and me, only in a 
 war zone.  There is so much more to know about 
 Ukraine than political borders, military tactics, 
 and CNN Breaking News.  It is a nation 
 filled with courageous people living life, and 
 committed fully, to their free and sovereign 
 homeland.  We'll have a conversation with 
 you about these folks.\n
