Club Description

Chinese Taiwanese Student Association’s (CTSA) Mission Statement:

CTSA draws students of all backgrounds who are interested in the Chinese culture. As a club open to all members of the PA community, we hope to create an environment in which people of a common background or interest can form bonds, discuss issues related to Chinese heritage, and most of all have fun! Many of our members are Chinese, but many more just have an interest in Chinese culture (especially Chinese food!).

We host a number of events to celebrate various Chinese holidays, and we participate in the International Festival and the Asian Arts Festival as well. In addition, at our regular meetings we play Chinese games, watch Chinese movies, celebrate Chinese culture, and always eat delicious Chinese food!

You don’t have to be Chinese to love Chinese food—you don’t have to be Chinese to join CTSA! Our regular meetings are on Fridays at 1924 House in Pine Knoll. Everyone is welcome, so if you’re not on the mailing list just contact one of our board members, and we’ll sign you up!
