Facebook page for the Hamline University Hmong Student Association
The theme that has been chosen for the 2016-2017 school year is,
"Powers in our stories"
Our objective this year is to be an organization that will help people discover and build a stronger connection with their identity. Every story has a history and a purpose; with every story told, hidden truths are revealed and awareness of one’s identity is realized.
The Hmong Student Association (HSA) here at Hamline University is a student organization that works to educate, promote, and share the Hmong Culture, traditions, and history with the campus and community. HSA has been established since 1995 and has developed in its mission a goal to critically and actively address issues in the community beyond the boundaries of Hamline University at the same time bringing into Hamline the broad concerns of the community that exist outside the walls of this campus.
During the month of November, HSA hosts our annual Hmong Month in which we hold events that focus on sharing the Hmong Culture, traditions, and History. Events that are annually held are Fright Night, Spooky Night, and Storytable Dinner about Hmong American life. At the end of November, our Hmong month, we celebrate by bringing everyone together for our Hmong New Year Celebration. HSA is not for limited to just Hmong students and we encourage anyone who is interested in learning about a different culture to take part in HSA because it encourages the will to seek and learn your own heritage.
