Happy New Year...sort of

Hey KASY members! I hope all of you had a very relaxing and enjoyable vacation and are ready to start the new semester. I finally updated the website haha sorry for the delay, but anyways make sure you check out the new pictures I uploaded.

I thought last semester's events were pretty sweet. Blackout was great ... all of blacklights looked really good and the DJ played some sweet music too. I want to thank Groove and the B-boys for their excellent dance performances as well. The study break we put on was pretty sweet too. I'm sorry about the den jang though! totally my fault that we didn't have any haha. Anyways, If you missed either of these events don't worry! Your fearless KASY Board has some great ideas for this upcoming semester. Get excited!

Oh also, Adopted Friends was the other big event for the fall. Make sure you give Laurie a pat on the back for all of her hard work! If you missed the fall one, there's also a spring Adopted Friends. We want to have more member involvement in the planning of this event so watch out for sign-ups for committees. Adopted Friends is totally worth signing up for, it's a great way to help adopted Korean children learn more about their culture (btw somehow I would like to make it more informative in the spring...but i digress). Also! you never know who you may meet at Adopted Friends... :) haha

Anyways, that's all I have for now. Remember to feel free to send me any pictures you may have taken during our KASY events or suggestions. Also, I can't believe I'm going to say this, but to Korean companies that have recently been spamming our Board with advertisements. This is unacceptable and must stop. This website exists for KASY members and for pre-frosh to learn about KASY, NOT for advertisement.

Hey everyone, this is James. Please give Matt a pat on the back as well for all his hard work updating this website! I just wanted to remind you all that we do have a calendar section, in order for members to plan ahead (see banner above). Click the "Agenda" tab for a more list-like view of upcoming events. Hope to see you all at the ddukgook dinner this Friday!

New Adventures!

Hey guys! Well the year is well on its way and many people have already had or will have their first exams. Good luck! In KASY, many exciting things have been happening. Naples Night was held on Sept. 18th. It was an excellent turn-out and it was a great time to meet new people.

The new Freshmen Liaison were elected...Congrats to Eunbi and John!


And the new families were announced at the 2nd General meeting.
Freshmen, my advice to you is to spend time with your parents! KASY is a great way to make new friends and to get in touch with the Korean community here at Yale. My parents are among my closest friends and I'm thankful that I've had the chance to get to know them.

And in other news, I have finally begun my own adventure in learning how to update the website. Bear with me as I attempt to follow in the footsteps of the Greats that have preceded me haha.

Welcome Back!

Hello Freshmen and returning Yalies!
I hope that your summers have been relaxing and enjoyable.  Frosh, it was wonderful seeing your beautiful faces at the Bazaar and I really hope that ALL of you come out to our first meeting. One of the things I like most about KASY is the strong community of Korean friends that it offers, something that I lacked in high school.  So I hope that all of you will have a great time with KASY too.  If you're not Korean, don't be discouraged, we're all still really cool people haha.  Anyways if you ever have any questions about the club feel free to approach myself or anyone in KASY. I know the website is terribly out-dated and I will work on that, just give me a little time haha.  Everyone else, I can't wait to see you all again.  Just a few reminders.  

KASY BBQ: Sept 6th 11:30 A.M.
1st General meeting: Sept 9th  at 9:00 P.M.

Watch for e-mails with more details about locations.  This is just a heads up.
