Role in the Community

  • 2012年2月在校內辦理 WorldVision Taiwan 救濟募款活動，顯示社團活動從校園文化延伸到台灣 humanitarian relief（WorldVision Taiwan Fundraiser by TSA at UC Berkeley，taiwaneseamerican.org，2012-02-14）。
  • 2026-09-22 corpus re-check: fresh grep (柏克萊加大台灣同學會 / berkeleytsa / ‘Taiwanese Student Association’+Berkeley) returns no new UC Berkeley facts; remaining hits are sibling chapters — USC 南加大台灣同學會 (燒肉粽 by USC TSA), KU 1961 (The First Taiwanese Student Association), OSU/華大/TSAPA — separate orgs, not absorbable here.
  • 2012–2013年與 taiwaneseamerican.org 合辦卡拉歌比賽（KARAOKE Song Contest），把台灣校園社團文化帶入全台美青年網絡：2012-11-16（Karaoke Contest with UC Berkeley’s TSA，存檔副本 archive copy）、2013-04-12（TSA Karaoke Contest in Berkeley）、2013-11-22（Karaoke Competition with TSA at Berkeley）。
  • 2026-09-23 (slice 09221500-8) corpus re-grep: no new UC Berkeley TSA facts. Remaining Berkeley-adjacent hits are other orgs/events on the same campus — 2014 ITASA West Coast conference at UC Berkeley, Berkeley TASA lantern festival, sibling campus TSAs (USC/UW/OSU/TSAPA) — not absorbable here. Saturated.
  • 2026-09-25 (slice 09231000-6): fresh grep (柏克萊加大台灣同學會 / berkeleytsa) returns zero hits in works+articles — verified saturated, SKIP-no-new-facts.
