The Horn of Africa Student Association is a student-based organization that focuses on furthering the academic, social, and cultural advancement of Eritrean, Ethiopian, Somali and Djibouti students on the University of California, Berkeley campus. This organization will initiate programs and activities within and outside of the university to promote interaction and strengthen relations between students and members of this community outside of the campus.
The level of growth and success of this organization is entirely dependent on the interest and participation demonstrated by its members. Thus, the association serves as: a pillar of information inspired by the experienced seniors, the judicious juniors, the acknowledged sophomores, and the zealous freshman; a place to exchange current affairs and discuss new developments in the Horn of Africa; and a place to share and express our tradition.
