Williams said the meeting was the continuation of cooperative efforts begun last year among black student groups. The most visible show of cooperation came after the Amadou Diallo shooting in February.
"The fact that we came together in the wake of [the Diallo shooting]...we wanted to come together more often to celebrate," Williams said.
She added that she hoped the black community introductory meeting would become an annual event.
However, Williams remained tight-lipped about the BSA's upcoming much-hyped "mystery event." Several e-mail messages have been circulated with teasing messages.
For example, a recent message sent over the BSA e-mail list proclaimed, "We will be announcing an event that is so big...you may not believe it when we drop it on you."
The message instructs BSA members to attend the group's general meeting this Friday for more information.
