Role in the Community

  • 2012-05-19 — TOSA co-participated with TSA (University of Washington) at a night market in Seattle, WA: a community recruiting/outreach event recorded in the TaiwaneseAmerican.org corpus — Join TSA and TOSA at a Night Market in Seattle, WA.
  • 2014-10-12 — TAH Foundation recorded the organization under its Chinese name 華大海外同學會 in the community historical record — Taiwanese Overseas Students Association (TOSA) 華大海外同學會.
  • Re-verified 2026-09-22 (deepen-x slice 09220700-18) and 2026-09-23 (slice 09221500-20): fresh grep of works/ and articles/ for TOSA / TOSAUW / 華大海外同學會 hits only the two corpus records already absorbed above plus the works index — no new absorbable material (re-verified 2026-09-25, slices 09231000-26 and 09250400-15; and 2026-09-26, slice 09252123-26 — same hit set).
  • Re-verified 2026-10-06 (deepen-x slice 10051200-6): fresh grep TOSA / TOSAUW / 華大海外同學會 across works/articles/sources/events/topics returns only the two corpus records already absorbed — the 2012-05-19 Seattle night-market record and the 2014-10-12 TAH directory record — plus index listings — same hit set; verified saturated, no new absorbable material.
  • 2026-10-08 re-grep (slice 10062218-10): same saturated hit set. Contextualized against the UW sister-org records in the corpus: TSA 華大台灣學生會 (2014 directory record) and UW iTAIWAN Graduate Students and Professional Association 西雅圖華大台灣研究生社 (2015 record) document the parallel UW Taiwanese student bodies TOSA coexisted with; the 2012 night-market record shows TOSA’s joint outreach with TSA. No new TOSA-specific facts beyond the two records above.
