A HUGE thanks to all who attended our FIRST EVER Night of Rhythm! Shoutouts to our dance team for having one of its BEST performances yet, Ade's Roots of Africa, as well as to Union College's ASU, who's dances definitely rocked the crowd (Was I the only one that spotted that Union woman's slowed gwara gwara? I was shook, fam).

Hey there!
Missed us?
Managed to show up to some ASA events?
Yes?
No?
Maybe so?
Regardless, we still have more events in store! The closest one is the International Festival, happening this Saturday, October 20th, 2018 in the Rensselaer Union. Come in, meet our executive board, and see performances from us and other multicultural orgs! And dont be afraid to drop a Happy Birthday to your favorite Webmaster (me!), as it falls on the same day!
Finally, some good/bad news: Getting the bad out of the way, there will be no GBM this week (10/14 - 10/20). I swear, I shed a tear just thinking about it. Don't fret, though! We will be having another GBM next week, involving a club you may (or may not) know: the Muslim Students Association! With such an interesting blend of cultures and ideas, why not show up and enjoy it with us?
Stay tuned for more details!
