Student Organizations
PASA
The Northwestern University Polish-American Student Alliance (PASA) was founded in the fall of 1996. Since its establishment, PASA has grown tremendously. PASA's mission is simple: to promote cultural awareness of all things Polish. The organization does not restrict membership solely to those of Polish descent. It welcomes students with any interest in Polish history, society and culture. Its dual goal is to teach as well as to learn. We have accomplished this in the past by advocating for Polish language education, hosting bonfires and holding an annual Polish Culture Night.
RUSSIAN CLUB
The Russian Club welcomes anyone with an interest in modern and/or Soviet Russian history, culture, or language! Russian Club Conversation tables are held bi-weekly in Kresge Hall, 3-305, the lounge adjacent to the Slavic department. In the off weeks, poetry readings, film screenings, excursions into Chicago and the surrounding Evanston area are organized by student members. Meeting days may change each quarter so please add yourself to the Slavic listserv by emailing slavic@northwestern.edu to stay in the loop!
All are welcome to join, no language or heritage restrictions apply.
We aim to support intellectual curiosity about Russian culture at Northwestern and hope to connect with you during your time at Northwestern!

SAB
The Weinberg College Student Advisory Board (SAB) is the primary source of student advice to the Dean of the College and the Associate Dean for Undergraduate Studies.
The SAB plays a central role in the College by:
- Helping nominate faculty and TAs for Weinberg College Outstanding Teaching awards
- Selecting Weinberg College students to serve on several vital committees
- Recommending a speaker for Weinberg College's Senior Convocation to the Dean
