各位同學，
在經過人數將近兩百人的聯合迎新以及大家同歡齊聚的北卡四校聯合運動會之後，我們深感一個凝聚台灣學生向心力及力量的組織極有它存在的必要性與正面意義。台灣每年培養四萬名菁英到美國來求學，這些人將來都將成為帶領台灣邁向更富強康莊大道的領袖或專業人士，因此，我們願意透過主辦旅遊休閒、教育學術、求職求才等各種活動來建立台灣學生互相交流、互通有無、互信互助的機制。
北美台灣學生協會為創立於一九八三年合法登記於北卡羅萊納的台灣學生非營利組織，然已許多年無正式活動。在經過創辦人同意，以及幾位有熱誠的創辦同學及本地熱心台灣同胞的討論及努力之下，理事會已於今年重新創建，並有幸在此向各位公告，北美台灣學生協會於西元2008正式再次運作。新任理事長由理事會投票通過，由UNC MBA王眾平同學擔任。
北美台灣學生協會在最近新一年度將要專注辦理的活動為：
一、美東台灣學生求職攬才會。
二、協助杜克大學大學部台灣學生會辦理美國台裔學生協會東岸會議(ITSA East Coast Conference)。
近三年的目標為：
一、聘請全職人員負責協助學生辦理跨校性活動，以及協助各學生會處理學生無法處理之複雜性事務(如法律諮詢等)。
二、成立專業評審小組，提供獎勵對台灣社會特殊貢獻學生之獎學金、或獎勵特殊表現學生之獎學金。
Upon uniting a welcome party of nearly 200 people and the joyful gathering of the Four-School Sports meet, we became deeply inspired by the need of agglomeration and association between Taiwanese Students and the positive effectiveness of an organization's existence. Each year, Taiwan sends out 40,000 outstanding students to pursue education in the United States, these students will be the future professionals for leading Taiwan to a more prosperous and powerful broad road. Thus, we are willing to establish and institute in all kinds of activities including leisure and tourism, learning and education, career look out to build up interflows, communications and cooperation.
The North American Taiwanese Students Association (The NATSA) was established in the year of 1983 and was legally registered as a non-profit organization of Taiwanese Student Association in North Carolina. However it has not been active for many years. Upon an agreement with the founder, and the efforts of several enthusiastic establishers and the fellow Taiwanese, The NATSA council has been reestablished this year, and hereby we joyfully announced that the NATSA organization is now reestablished in the year of 2008. The new president of the council has been voted and approved by the council members, through Chung-ping Wang from UNC MBA to serve for the new term.
For the upcoming year, The NATSA will be concentrating on conducting activities as the following:
1) East Coast Taiwanese Students Job Fair
2) Assist in TSA undergraduate sector of Duke University to conduct the Intercollegiate Taiwanese American Association (ITASA) East Coast conference.
Goals for the upcoming three years:
1) Employ full time personnel to provide assistance in conducting major
cross-campus activities, and assist in students for dealing with complicated administrative activities such as legal consultant and etc.

Scholarships for students with excellence in contributions or excellence in performance.
