The Organization of Pakistani Students is a student group open to all Columbia
University undergraduate & graduate students, staff, and faculty. We seek to
bring together those members of the Columbia & Barnard community that share our
interest in the social, cultural, and political milieu of Pakistan and Central
& South Asia. The club was founded over a decade ago with hopes of fostering
understanding and diversity at our campus - and still strives to achieve that
vision today.
Students of Pakistani heritage have been a part of the Columbia University community
since Pakistan's independence. Columbia was the site of one of the first formal
Pakistani student associations in the United States and over the past five decades,
multiple organizations representing Pakistani students have been a vibrant part
of campus life. The OPS, established in 1992, is a descendent of those organizations
and is deeply rooted in their rich history.
