Website Mission Membership Benefits

Mission
The goal of this association is to provide the opportunity to acquire and share intellectual, cultural, and social experiences regarding Puerto Rico that enhance our lives and make us better individuals. These experiences broaden our horizons for a more complete world vision, with a better understanding of socio-cultural topics, and prepare us to face a professional life full of challenges. The great diversity in fields of study, age, ideas and ideologies, cultural and socio-economic backgrounds that the Puerto Rican students, as Latinos, may bring as future members of the Puerto Rican Student Association (PRSA), makes the association one that will be able to confront the challenges of a multicultural society and should respect and understand the individual opinions and idiosyncrasies. We, the founder officers of the PRSA, understand that the association is a key instrument in the adaptation process and integral development of Puerto Rican students, who face academic and professional challenges in the United States of America (USA) and the rest of the world. This is the fundamental reason to develop the PRSA and to start our duties at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, during the fall semester of 2024.
