Who we are

Rangoli is one of the largest and oldest South Asian Graduate Student Club at the University of Pennsylvania.

Founded in 1999, Penn Rangoli is one of the oldest South Asian graduate student organizations at the University of Pennsylvania. Since its inception, it has built a strong community through cultural celebrations, academic and social programming, and consistent advocacy for graduate student issues. Over the years, Rangoli has also stepped into broader service, from earthquake and tsunami relief fundraisers to co-hosting Diwali and Holi celebrations with other Penn groups, cementing its role as both a cultural and civic presence on campus.
