introducing… the ASA Historian Project!

This project has been a long time coming and was the initiative of the previous Advocacy Chair and VPE, Albert Tanjaya, which was passed along to our 2020-2021 VPA, Jenny Zhen, and now, Aaron Zhang.

The goals of this project are to:
1. establish building upon previous board initiatives and objectives
2. to learn from both setbacks and successes made by previous boards
3. to create a timeline of significant changes and happenings throughout ASA history

To achieve these overarching goals, we aim to hold and record interviews (in person or via zoom) with previous board members, committee members, and general body members of ASA.

If you are interested in being interviewed and contributing to this project, please fill out the form in our bio! We welcome anyone and everyone :)

and we hope to document this year and past years of ASA as well as we can to help future boards and the always growing ASA community 💓
