Thai Student Association at the University of Pennsylvania, also more affectionately and unofficially known as PennThai was founded in 1995. The association now comprise more than 40 undergraduate and graduate students, both Thai and non-Thai, who are interested to learn more about our heritage.
Over the years, we have become a more active student group on campus, organizing a plethora of events for our members and the Penn community, ranging from small gatherings to our signature extravaganza, Thai Night! As a member of the Asian Pacific Student Coalition (APSC), PennThai also works with other cultural groups on campus to celebrate and promote the richness of Asian Pacific American culture. It is our hope to continue to build a close-knit Thai community and to establish good relationships with other cultural groups through these events.
