Dear Editor:
The well-written obituary for Prof. George Perfecky (February 2) correctly notes that “for years he served as the faculty advisor to the Ukrainian Club” at La Salle University.
It is worth mentioning that he was also instrumental in the creation of the club. In 1970, a few Ukrainian students at La Salle, discouraged by the Russophilic tendencies in the Slavic Club, approached Dr. Perfecky with the idea of creating a Ukrainian Club. Not only did he support this endeavor, but he also did everything possible to overcome bureaucratic obstacles and bring it to fruition.
