A Blast From the Past: UVSA 25th Anniversary Banquet

We won't be having a General Meeting this week but instead go eat Pho at Pho 999. Rides will be provided, just bring yourselves and your friends and money for Pho. Meet at Ackerman Turnaround at 5PM this Wednesday, February 27. It's a great time to relax and break from the intense studying you've been doing (hopefully). Hope to see your faces!

Want to know more about Internship? Come to this week's meeting that is being programmed by the VSU Interns. Be aware that the general meeting will start at 6PM instead of 5PM. It's still at SAC Basement so no worries there. Also, remember to come to the first VSU Valentines this Tuesday to eat and mingle and best of all, it's free!

If you don't know what Tet is, it is the Vietnamese New Year! Come and learn more about Tet at the VSU General Meeting this Wednesday. There are also more events going on this month so check out the list to the right. And for those who want to know more about VSU and its past, there's an Alumni section that was just added. It'll be continually updated so keep an eye out on that.

02.01.08. Whoa the website looks different! -

Unless you're colorblind, I'm sure you noticed the new theme. Since it's February, I thought I'd make the website a bit more light hearted. And thus, we have Valentine's as the theme for February. Of course, if you don't like this new theme, shoot me an e-mail and give me suggestions and critiques. You can tell me if you like January's " New Start, Slick Future" theme better or whatnot. But hopefully from now on, every month, the website will receive a new theme that is appropriate to its respective month.

As for website content, I've added a few new pages, alumni and internship. I'm going to make this website as comprehensive as I possibly can. And of course, above this is the shoutbox so speak your mind, but please keep it PG-13 okay? And I'm working on a forum right now so hopefully that'll be up soon. So keep an eye out for that, but don't strain too hard. Until next time, this mini-feed is over and out!

Hello. My name is Daniel Pham, your President for this year. For those new to VSU, welcome to one of the largest and tightest-knit family at UCLA. I am sure you, like many other members and staff before you, will find the Vietnamese Student Union to be your home away from home. For those returning, I look forward to seeing your awesome faces again, and you will find that we are trying out many new and great things.
