HISTORY
The Howard University Student Association (HUSA) was established in 1961 and adopted its constitution in January of 1977.
Fifty-Seven Years ago, the students of Howard University, saw the necessity to create an entity that would provide for: broad involvement and adequate representation of all major student segments. This mechanism would speak to the needs of students in the various schools and colleges and improve the channels of communication between the administration, students, and faculty. The organization would also serve to effectively maintain relationships with student government organizations at other institutions, and it would need to address community concerns. Finally, and most importantly, this organization would need to provide assistance in determining the future direction of the University. Sixty-Six years ago, the Howard University Student Association (HUSA) was born.
