The tradition continues!...The Tunisian Community Center teamed up with our sister Organization, American Alumni Network , to have our annual Tunisia Reunion.

It will be a dinner meeting on Wednesday August 1st, 2007 at 8 PM at a restaurant in Hammamet-Sud (the name of the restaurant wil be announced soon). It will be the best opportunity for our alumni community from within Tunisia and outside to get together and for old friends to reconnect. Please, use this form to RSVP.

Tunisia has a great potential to offer tourists more than sea and sand, in fact Phoenicians, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Spanish, Turks and French have all passed this way and stayed for various lengths of time (Black, 2003).

With the succession of numbers of civilizations, Tunisia is rich of culture and historical monuments that have to be more explored for guided tours, festivals and cultural manifestations in order to meet the need of the tourists seeking a cultural experience as a part of their vacation.

Unlike Muslim minorities in many European countries, U.S. Muslims are highly assimilated, close to parity with other Americans in income and overwhelmingly opposed to Islamic extremism, according to the first major, nationwide random survey of Muslims.

Many thanks go to those who already took our online survey, and many thanks in advance to those who will this time around!. It is basic questionnaire that was developed by Dr Mounira Maya Charrad (as part of a reserach project at the University of Texas), in partial collaboration with the Tunisian Community Center.

The findings of the survey on the characteristics of Tunisian Americans will help all of us gain a better understanding of who we are as a community and will also help guide our Organization in future projects. If you have any questions, you may contact Dr Charrad or Mr Khemili
