Description

The Chinese Students' Association (CSA) is a student group at the University of Pennsylvania that aims to promote social, cultural, and political Chinese and Chinese-American affairs to the community.

CSA exists to create an organization of individuals interested in these affairs and provide a way for all people to learn more about Chinese and Chinese-American culture, history, food, and news while creating a network and multifaceted family of members.

To carry out our mission, CSA holds numerous events including our annual cultural show production, holiday festivals, food events, trips, study breaks, and more.

Question: Which events do you look forward to hosting each year? - Anonymous
In typical on-campus years, we host our signature large events like Dumpling Fest (all-you-can eat dumplings!), Rose Sale (fresh rose deliveries!), and Cultural Show. Some of our favorite events in the past have also been our Boat Formal and going to a trampoline park. With a virtual semester, CSA looks forward to hosting some exciting online events that might not beat all-you-can-eat dumplings, but will definitely highlight the best part of CSA - our community of people! :)
