Friendship Association of Chinese Students and Scholars

The Friendship Association of Chinese Students and Scholars (FACSS) is the leading Chinese student organization at UT Dallas. With 5 different branches and more than 50 active members, FACSS is also one of the biggest student organizations on campus. Every summer, FACSS collaborates with other school organizations, such as ICP and Big Howdy, to provide help and services for incoming Chinese students at UTD, such as free airport pick-up and local-help. Each semester, FACSS holds various events, such as new student orientation, Halloween party, and performances on Mid-Autumn Day and Chinese New Year, to enrich campus life and promote diversity across the campus. Meanwhile, FACSS always communicates with the school about the concerns and needs of Chinese students at UTD and tries its best to provide needed help.
