CSUF’s Pakistani Student Association
Celebrates Independence
The Pakistani Student Association (PSA) at Cal State
Fullerton has continually made conscious efforts to educate themselves,
as well as others, about their culture. In addition, the PSA has
remained committed to focusing on understanding values of different
cultures. Through cultural education and commitment, this student
group seeks to provide rich experiences for the campus and the community.
This year, the Pakistani Students Association, with support from
the Association for Intercultural Awareness (AICA-ASI), are proud
to present:
7th Annual Pakistan Independence
Day
6 p.m. to midnight
Saturday, August 16, 2003

The purpose of this event is to bring together the
Pakistani and non-Pakistani communities to celebrate gratitude and
love for Pakistan by showcasing the rich culture with authentic
food, clothing and cultural performances. It is anticipated that
over 7,000 Pakistanis and non-Pakistanis from Southern California
will join in the celebration at this event, which is the largest
student organized independence day event presented on the West Coast.
Everyone is welcome. The Pakistani Student Association looks forward
to the support of the campus and community by joining the celebration
and raising multicultural awareness in the community.
