IGSSA - The Indian Student and Scholars Association at Northwestern University was established in 2007. IGSSA started out initially dependent entirely on contributions from the students and organizing small but delightful events centered around Indian Festivals. Now, after all these years it has grown into this large well-oiled organization, which is run efficiently by the student body of Northwe
stern. The objectives of IGSSA are to increase the awareness of Indians on campus and in the community, to preserve the rich cultural heritage of India, to ensure a homely atmosphere for Indian students living away from home and to unite Indians and people of other races by celebrating and learning from diversity. Thousands of students from India and other countries leave their families and friends and live far away in the United States. IGSSA, serves as a tiny blip on a landscape of loneliness and helplessness to welcome such students and provide them with a home-away-from-home, which they share with people from all over the world. IGSSA provides a platform for these students to showcase the uniqueness of Indian culture to all cultures and in turn learn from them, enriching their knowledge and wisdom.
