Some pictures from the May 2001 Sudan Studies Association annual meetings in East Lansing, Michigan. 

Malik Balla was the local coordinator, and Abdullahi Ibrahim to program coordinator (in his capacity as President of SSA). 

Everyone was thrilled to have Mohamed Wardi and Ahmed al-Shahi as honored guests.
