“Not Asian Enough” (APIYLC) with Jolee Chan, Natalie Liang, Tara Kavanagh, Vanessa He — Room 701
Have you ever had a gut feeling about not being Asian enough? Many of us, being AAPI, struggle with finding our identity. Growing up Asian in America creates a rift between our American and Asian identities as well as how our perspectives are shaped. In this workshop, we will explore the concept of being “not Asian enough” and how the media and trends affect this ideology within the AAPI community. Join us to learn more about your growing identity and how this may affect others and yourself!
College Admissions: “Affirmative” or Negative? (APIYLC) with Amia Ma, Chulin Zou, Clarisse Kim, Jenavieve Wong, Kaleb Tang — Room 702
What affects a person’s chances of getting into their dream college? Contrary to popular belief, an applicant’s personal statements, extracurriculars, and GPA aren’t the only things affecting your college prospects. An applicant’s background can be a huge factor in determining whether or not they get accepted; this makes the admissions game an unfair one to play. In this workshop, we will address the integrity of college admissions and the topic of taking affirmative action through honest discussions and games. After all, every high schooler, no matter their race, class, or gender, should have an equal chance when applying to colleges. (Disclaimer: This is not like college counseling! We’re not qualified for that!!)
Who is API? (APIYLC) with Anu Ganzorig, Bella Wong, Hebe Situ, Myra Wong, Tiffany Lum, Christy Lu — Room 703
There is a common misconception about Asians and Pacific Islanders. What do you expect when you think of Asian and Pacific Islander ethnicities? Does your mind float over to Chinese, Korean, or Japanese? Do you even know what the Pacific Islander community represents? There are over 50 Asian and Pacific Islander diverse ethnicities spread across our globe. Who is API and why are they so underrepresented in our society? Who Is API is an interactive workshop that takes our peers across the Asian and Pacific Islands to spread diversity and awareness for other rich and wonderful cultures.
