indu Student Council (HSC) is a non-profit organization established for promoting understanding between Hindus and students of various nationalities and cultures, educating students about Hinduism, encouraging students to develop leadership and team-working skills while pursuing their professional and scholastic endeavors, as well as providing a means for students to serve within the community, thus becoming more socially aware and responsible individuals.

UAB HSC is a local chapter of this international organization. The UAB HSC is a basic organization born out of the need to explain the basic tenets of Sanatana Dharma otherwise known as Hinduism to a Western mind.  We have been gathering since spring of 1997. Over the years we have been instrumental in educating Birminghamites about Sanatana Dharma. 

We have naturally ended up being watchdogs in the local and national media about misrepresenting Sanatana Dharma to the American Public. We meet every week to empower ourselves and learn everything that we possibly can to become intellectual ksatriyas in a world where Sanatana Dharma is misunderstood.

Hindu Students Council (HSC) understands and is committed to fulfilling its responsibilities of abiding by University of Alabama at Birmingham policies.
