The African Students Association is the campus group for African culture. The group is a recognized student group under the Activities Board at Columbia. This group is a distinct group from the Black Students Organization, as it focuses strictly on students of immediate African descent, as opposed to the larger Black Students Organization, whose focus also includes African-American students among many others.
"The purpose of the African Students Association is to provide a forum for meaningful discussion of the political, social, and cultural landscape of Africa. We aim to create a culturally enlightened community on campus by educating people about Africa. We welcome all people interested in Africa and African issues." - ASA, 2023
