Black Student Union (BSU) was started at the beginning of this school year by Gabrielle Erawoc and Jainaba Conteh. In BSU, students have discussions about Black issues in Andover High School and share their experiences. When students bring up concerns, the club takes action to fix them. 

During February, BSU talked about a famous Black person every day in the morning announcements, and they hope to do similar projects in the future. 

BSU member Aisosa Oviasogie described the club as a very welcoming place. “[BSU is] a good place to comfortably talk about your experiences,” Oviasogie said.

BSU meets every Tuesday after school in room 301. Meetings run until 3:30 p.m. For more information about BSU, you can email the club leaders: jconteh2023@k12.andoverma.us and gerawoc2023@k12.andoverma.us.

Welcome to a new component of the ANDOVERVIEW newspaper! Club of the Month is a small section that will advertise a different club each month to help and promote the amazing clubs this school has to offer. 

Asian Culture Club is run by Vivian Tang and Jacqueline Zhu, and advised by Lin Wu. This club is meant to inspire interest in Asian culture, traditions, and people, as well as their values! Club members can do anything from watching movies from Asian movie studios (Studio Ghibli as an example) to playing traditional games from all around Asia to eating some amazing Asian cuisine. 

“My favorite aspect of the club is educating myself and others about the importance of diversity,” said Tang. Creating environments that welcome all different backgrounds is one of the club’s biggest goals. Allowing all ethnicities to come together and learn about each other’s cultures and finding similarities is something this club strives to do every meeting!

Meeting times: Tuesday 3-3:30 p.m. in room 305

If you want your club to be featured as club of the month, you can contact ANDOVERVIEW at andoverview@andoverma.us or through the contact page on our website.
