Barnard College, Columbia University, CUNY Baurch, CUNY Hunter, Cornell University, Fordham University, and New York University are proud to present this year's New York City Asian American Student Conference, INK:Imagine aNd RethinK. While often glossed over in history books and lumped together as a group, Asian Americans are extremely diverse and have been an integral part in shaping American history. But don't just take our word for it. By attending NYCAASC and the conference's workshops, we hope to start a dialogue with you. We hope you'll gain a better understanding of who you are as an Asian American. More importantly, we hope you'll see yourself as an empowered individual.

So what are you waiting for? Register and start INKing your own story right now.
I'm happy and honored to be returning to conference this year to serve as keynote speaker. For further information about the event, including the full lineup of the panels and speakers, and to register, go to the NYCAASC website here. Hope to see you there this Saturday.
