Penn Taiwanese Society works to provide a network and
community for Penn students who are interested in Taiwanese
affairs. We hold monthly events to foster cultural
enrichment for both PTS members and the greater Penn
community. Examples include family group outings, bubble
tea socials, educational workshops, food nights, study
breaks, dim sum trips, karaoke, and our annual cultural
show. PTS also strives to hold strong relationships with
other APA organizations on campus with the goal of
promoting unity at Penn. Through ITASA leadership retreats,
national conferences, and joint events, we aspire to reach
out beyond our campus and cultivate friendships and
connections with other Taiwanese organizations on the East
Coast. PTS is committed to bringing the best cultural
experience for all those interested.
Congratulations to our entire PTS Family for winning Best TASA at the ITASA East Coast Conference! In what is the most competitive and prestigious category, PTS won its second consecutive award for the most outstanding national Taiwanese American student organization.
Thank you all for your continued support!
