The South Asian Society is one of Georgetown’s most active organizations on campus. Seeking to raise awareness and understanding of South Asia, SAS hosts a variety of social, cultural, academic, artistic, and charitable events throughout the year. Some of our annual events include Fall Dinner, a semi-formal social gathering, Rangila, the fastest selling cultural benefit show on campus, raising over $10,000 for charity each year, and Spring Mela, a festival celebrating South Asia’s regional diversity-- artistic, linguistic, religious, culinary, and more. In addition, we are always open to ideas and suggestions, and coordinate new events, programs, and co-sponsorships every year.
With an exceptionally strong sense of community, we not only provide support for all of our members, but also reach out to the rest of the campus and beyond. Some of our areas of outreach include community service, collaboration with other cultural organizations, and working with university faculty and administration on South Asian academic, social, and cultural initiatives.
From the motherlands of South Asia to Georgetown, SAS is for all who celebrate and enjoy South Asian culture! Everyone is welcome, so please join!
