AgASA was formed in response to what was perceived as very aggressive and deceptive marketing on the part of some of the Christian organizations on campus. The group was founded by three people, all of whom have now moved out of Davis and on to other things. Founder, Bryce Kuklok class of 2004, designed the official logo of AgASA to be a Jesus fish on a plate ready to be eaten. His reasoning in starting the organization was that there were no fewer than a dozen religious organizations present on what was supposed to be a secular public campus, yet there was no outlet for the godless, who were bombarded on a daily basis by the rhetoric and propaganda of faith based groups. The original intended name of AgASA was Aggie Agnostics, but in a
move inconsistent with the reality of other student groups present on campus, Bryce was barred from using the term "Aggie".

The group's former president was Kris Fricke, who aspired to restart the club several times during the 2002-2003 school year. In the mid-winter quarter of 2005, Kris held a meeting and people actually showed up and were interested in getting AgASA going again! After officer elections and official affiliation with larger Agnostic and Atheist groups (such as [WWW]Secular Student Alliance and [WWW]Atheists and Other Freethinkers), the new board was excited to start having fun and meeting new agnostics and atheists hidden in the Davis community.


The group started to die out in 2006 and 2007, but it is now 2008, and with a great group of the coolest people as officers AgASA has picked up again and is better than ever!

The Agnostic and Atheist Student Association, or AgASA is a campus organization with the purpose of uniting the many agnostics and atheists on campus and providing an opportunity to socialize with like-minded individuals, while questioning religious and theistic beliefs. The club is predominantly made up of people who identify as materialists/naturalists/physicalists (people who do not believe in any form of the supernatural) and non-theists who believe in some things that are supernatural. However, everyone is welcome to the general meetings and to partake in the discussions.
