HKSA is excited to announce a FREE hotpot event and would like to invite you to join us for our hotpot dinner. We are planning to spend a night before the Thanksgiving recess, and have a dinner to socialize with our peers.

This hotpot is not just a pot filled with boiling water. Nope, not at all. We will provide a soup and dipping sauces to highlights the true flavors of each ingredient. Our dinner also includes a wide variety of meats, vegetables, dumplings, and more. You can also mix your own dipping sauce and create a personalize dipping sauce using any of the following: soy sauce, chili oil, sesame oil, garlic, onion, etc. Very delicious!

If we exceed a certain anticipated attendee count, we will need to set a cap and close our sign-up sheet. But we don’t anticipate this to happen. As usual, we always welcome to bring your guests to our hotpot event. See you in dinner.

AASA (Asian American Student Organization) is planning a spring culture show. Here is their announcement text:

The show is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, April 21 of next year. Your performance will be entirely up to you creatively, as long as it is related to our theme of diversity and representation of all of our subgroups’ cultures. Our preliminary theme is:

HOT POT.

COME OUT TO SEE STANFORD'S SPICIEST STUDENT GROUPS IN ONE GIANT SHOW. SO MANY FLAVORS, YOU'LL WANT SECONDS.

Examples of the types of acts typically featured in culture shows are: dances, spoken word/slam poetry, presentations, speakers, skits etc. We also request that the performance stay within 10 minutes. However, if you feel that more time is needed, please let us know! As part of the show, we will also be putting on a mini-fashion show which we hope all of the groups can participate in in addition to their individual acts.

AASA is soliciting contribution for their show, and they also emphasize that they will be available to enhance any performance aspects if you request assistance. If you are interested in performing in their show, please let Stephan know by November 14. It would be exciting to have an HKSA representative.
