Asian Studerlt Alliance The Asian Student Alliance is an ever growing club that embraces all Asian ethnicities and is dedicated to educating about Asian culture. The club consists of over 100 members, but members do NOT have to be Asian, only appreciate the Asian culture. ASA continues to dominate Multi-Cultural Week and hosts at least one event a month. They also try to rate themselves from Asian stereotypes of vigorous study and little social Contact by hosting events such as house parties, ice skating events, lunches at ethnic restaurants, Hlm festivals, and the annual end-of-the-year BBQ. s r ASA 11051661 a balloon ami daI'lS game aNd After months of practice, ASA dancers pose for a picture after a performance.
