ASA – African Student Association
African Student Association (ASA) is a student run organization committed to fostering a community for students from Africa, of African descent, and those interested in Africa. Consisting of Pan-African/Black American students, this organization is dedicated to celebrating specifically Pan-African cultures /identities and to "remembrance"-- to remember our culture/ancestry and to re-member ourselves in our identity. We aim to achieve these goals through community bonding and building, community service, and discussion/ education to grow and empower our members.
