Adelphi University Taiwanese Student Association (AUTSA)

致 大紐約地區台灣同學會聯合會幹部 及 各校台灣同學會會長:

Dear FTSANY Officers & TSA Presidents:

很榮幸得以在兩個星期前於紐約台北經文處(TECO)及上個星期於紐約大學(NYU)所舉辦的座談會中與各位見面。身為大紐約台灣學聯長期以來的法律顧問，從我們經驗所悉，大部分同學都

可能會遇到兩種類型的法律問題：租屋以及移民問題。謹檢附以下資訊，希望對於學生會與同學們有所助益。歡迎(1)各位公布這些資訊，或(2)告知有需要的同學可直接以電子郵件與我們連絡。(3) 若你們覺得有幫助的話，我們也很樂意到各校拜訪並舉辦簡單的法律講座。 It's nice meeting some of you at the Seminar at TECO two weeks ago and at NYU last week.  As a long-time FTSANY's legal counsel, our experience is that most students' legal issues fall into two main categories:  housing and immigration.  The following information should be useful to your association and members.  (1) Please feel free to post them or (2) ask your members contact us directly, preferably by emails. (3) We will also be more than happy to visit your campus and give a brief legal seminar should you feel helpful.
