FASO Events

FASO has many annual events to involve the communities of FASO, Notre Dame, and the Mishawaka/South Bend region.

Please check our History Page to learn more about some of these events!

ANNUAL FASO TRADITIONS

Fiestang

FASO's signature event, a cultural show to promote awareness and diversity on campus, as well as to celebrate the Filipino culture.

Halo-Haloween

An annual Halloween trip to a haunted house in Niles and, of course, the yummy Filipino dessert, Halo-Halo.

Concession Stands

A great way to raise money for new events, as well as getting to spend time with friends before a football game.

Asian Allure

A celebration of all Asian cultures hosted in the fall in the historic Washington Hall.

FASO IN THE COMMUNITY

Filipino American Association of Michiana Events

The Filipino American Association of Michiana (FAAM) invites FASO to perform at social events.

OTHER FASO OPPORTUNITIES

Tagalog Lessons

Started by Randall Ang '12 and Anne Robles '13 in Spring 2010, FASO offers basic Tagalog lessons.

Bonfires

Nice way to get to know people at the beginning of the school year, and an excuse to eat lots of lumpia and turon.

Ate-Kuya Socials

Each freshman is paired with an ate and/or kuya for the year.

OLD FASO TRADITIONS

These are cherished traditions FASO used to have but have unfortunately ceased.

We hope to bring them back to FASO sometime in the near future!

Lumpia Nights

Small get togethers to make some of that old fashioned home cooked meals.

Thai Lao Trips

Trips/Walks to the local Filipino Restaurant just near campus.

Annual Fall Retreats

FASO once hosted annual Fall retreats and leadership retreats for members and non-members alike.
