About the Organization
The AIAS is an independent, non-profit and student-run organization that is more than just a club. This grassroots association is a cooperative between thousands of students (of all ages and academic degrees) committed to helping each other. It provides a sense of community and a forum to share differing views. That AIAS is also a professional organization that is the official voice of architecture students. The primary goal of our Drury chapter is to act as a support system for students through various networks with the HSA, Drury, Springfield, Regional and National communities.

The Drury chapter of AIAS operates under a committee system that allows students to participate in projects they feel most passionate about. Projects range in scale and involvement, and are primarily decided by individual student participation. They can be as small as a singular game night, or as large as a design-build community project. For a full list of committees, or if you are interested in forming your own committee, please email aiasdu@outlook.com.

Meetings
AIAS meets monthly on Thursdays, because AIAS uses a committee format, meetings times are varied. Please email aiasdu@outl0ok.com for a detailed schedule of committee meeting times. TBA, decided by individual committees.
