About Us
The purpose of ASA is to create a welcoming and inclusive community for individuals interested in Arab language, culture, and heritage, with the goal of fostering cross-cultural dialogue and mutual understanding on campus and beyond. Those individuals also have the opportunity to increase awareness of pertinent issues in the Arab world both on the Cornell campus and in the larger Ithaca community. ASA is a nonpartisan student group. As such, it will not be associated with or have any bias towards regional Arab political, religious, and ideological entities.
