The Mission of Indian Student Association is to provide the students of Portland State University and surrounding community with a link to the Indian sub-continental culture by hosting a variety of cultural events interspersed with several meetings throughout the academic year. It acts as an interconnecting system for students to network amongst themselves and create an environment that will help in adjusting to the Portland metropolitan area. In addition, it is our goal to get involved with the community by volunteering our time and services toward non-profit organizations and causes.
