Thinking of joining a new campus club at Southern Utah University? The Native American Student Association, also known as NASA, may be the perfect club for you! Here are four fun facts about this campus group.
1. Multiple tribe representation
NASA welcomes and supports all native tribes. A variety of tribes are represented within the club, though tribe affiliation is not required for membership. During various events hosted throughout the year, NASA works to represent different aspects of each tribe including everything from foods and games to traditions.
2. Partnership with PITU
NASA and the Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah (PITU) often partner together for events and community outreach. In 2019, the 40th annual Pow-Wow celebration was hosted at the PITU building. Annually, NASA volunteers at the PITU’s Annual Veterans Dinner. These two organizations work together to unite the Cedar City Native American community.
3. Weekly meetings
NASA hosts meetings every week to plan upcoming events and check-in with club members. With each meeting, there is always time for attendees to share what’s on their mind in a safe, welcoming space. NASA values each individual and creates an atmosphere that reflects that.
4. Everyone is invited
NASA provides an eager learning community that prioritizes academics and student involvement. NASA welcomes all SUU students to join the club!
“Even though we sometimes close our door during meetings, know that you are always welcome to join,” said Morgan Whiskers, 2019-2020 NASA club president.
