Over 20 members of ASAs from different colleges and universities across California were present for the gathering, which culminated with the election of the 2016-2017 All-ASA executive board.

The meeting consisted of a review of and extensive discussion on the All-ASA’s events and projects organized during the past year. Throughout the year, the organization used its newly updated mission statement to not only motivate individual ASAs to remain as active organizations on their respective campuses, but also to spur large-scale programming in the cultural, social, and activism spheres in order to engage all students with the greater Armenian community.

Outgoing chairperson Mikael Matossian, a recent graduate of the University of California, Los Angeles, evaluated the year to be successful, and noted the opportunities for further progress. “Thanks to our new mission statement, we increased the scope of work of the All-ASA collective and increased its community presence,”
