Philippine Student Association at UIUC

The Philippine Student Association at UIUC, based in Champaign, Illinois, is a student organization established in 1919. With a membership of 7 individuals, the association plays a significant role in fostering Filipino identity and culture on the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign campus. PSA offers its general members a variety of opportunities to engage with Filipino culture, including social events, discussions on current issues, and participation in performances. The organization also aims to cultivate academic and leadership skills among its members, encouraging their positive impact on both themselves and the wider community. One of PSA's most notable endeavors is the Filipino Americans Coming Together (FACT) conference, which it has hosted for 25 years. This weekend-long event brings together Filipino American students from various universities for workshops focused on leadership development, education, and community building. FACT serves as a platform for national unity and appreciation within the Filipino American community.
