The Salad Bowl was founded in July 2003 by a group of Peer Networkers and International students in the hopes of continuing friendships formed during Orientation. Many local students formed unique friendships with individuals from differing countries around the world during Orientation at UTS and as such were inspired to create The Salad Bowl to keep the friendships alive and to continue to make new ties within UTS.

This group recognises the cultural diversity that exists within UTS and as such would like to reflect on that diversity. The Salad Bowl aims to bring out the best of each culture by allowing everyone to experience and understand the different backgrounds whilst at the same time helping us to appreciate the similarities.

We have organised a very innovative and exciting social calendar for 2008. The Salad Bowl members will be able to enjoy and participate in a variety of events from adventurous outings to local outings as well as on campus events. Along the way, The Salad Bowl members will be able to establish new friendships and meet new and interesting people from different walks of life. We trust that through holding a variety of enjoyable events, we will enhance a mutual understanding of differing cultures and backgrounds.

(In other words: We're all about having fun, meeting new people and learning something new)
