About Us

The South Asian Society at Yale (SAS) is an organization of social, cultural, and intellectual exchange for those with a special interest in South Asia (Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka). The mission of SAS is threefold: to increase awareness of South Asian and South Asian American political issues, to increase South Asian cultural awareness, and to serve as a social tie for the South Asian community at Yale University. SAS is not necessarily just for South Asians: it is open to all that share an interest in any aspect of South Asia. Everyone is welcome in this organization.
