Club Spotlight: Asian Student Interest Association

Asians and Asian-Americans have been one of the most underrepresented groups on Wake Forest campus. 

ASIA, Asian Student Interest Association, is looking to change that. 

Open to all Wake Forest students, ASIA promotes diversity and inclusivity on campus through various events on campus and in-club activities. The Mid-Autumn Moon Festival is the major event celebrated in the fall while the Lunar New Year Festival is featured in the Spring. Faculty and other community members are encouraged to observe the traditional Asian dances and enjoy various Asian cuisines. The authentic dishes come from local restaurants around the Winston-Salem area, and feature Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Thai cuisines. These two events are a fun way to learn about Asian culture and meet members of the Asian community.

In addition to the major festivals thrown each year, ASIA plans smaller events for their members. Whether it is a movie, Hot Pot, or games, these nights make ASIA more than just planning big festivals. It’s a place where one can make friends and learn about a different culture, regardless of ethnicity. Pictured below is from the Intercultural Cook Off 2019, where ASIA members worked together to make Fluffy Japanese Soufflé Pancakes.

With more than 7% of Wake Forest students being international Asian students, Asian culture should be celebrated and recognized throughout Wake’s campus. Asian Students Interest Association in collaboration with multicultural clubs on campus, is helping to increase cultural awareness.

Ranking the Best Wake Forest Alternate Logos

Throughout the years, we’ve seen numerous alternate logos for the Demon Deacons. These designs have been on stickers, shirts, and many other accessories. While many of these logos standout, a few of them fall flat. Here are the seven Wake Forest alternate logos, ranked from worst to best:

7. This logo was used from 1968 to 1976, as it depicts a conjoined W and F. Not a huge fan of this logo, as It looks like a logo for a local wing restaurant. Although, we can see some throwback value to it.

6. Here’s a classic logo used from 2007 until 2018. The gold is timeless, but perhaps it could use another color. Overall, it’s a simple and respectable design.

5. The updated wing logo, this logo was presented in 1977 and used for 8 years. In addition to the gold and black outline, the sharp edge of the design adds a little bit more to its predecessor. 

4. Used from 1968 until 1992, this logo definitely has some throwback value. This headshot of our Demon Deacon highlights his glaring eyes and intense scowl. Although these shades of yellow and blue aren’t typical Wake Forest colors, they complement each other well. 

3. It’s not just any hat. It’s the distinct top hat worn by our own Demon Deacon, accented with black and gold. This minimalistic design is recognizable and cuts straight to the point. Could it use a bit more pizazz? Sure, but it’s still a clean, neat logo that was presented in 2019 and used currently.

2. The classic black and gold color scheme is used full effect here. The iconic W and F stand out in the black background. This is what you see on the big screen when you’re watching a game of Demon Deacon football. A timeless design.

1. This silhouette is an amazing combination between simplicity and symbolism. Presenting the Demon Deacon in stride, this logo reflects our passionate march towards success and victory. You can see the statue version outside of BB&T stadium. Introduced in 2019, we proudly continue to use this design to this day.

Disagree with the list? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
