The purpose of
the reception is
to introduce
CUNY faculty and
staff, old and
new, to the
Asian American /
Asian Research
Institute; our
mission as a
university-wide
scholarly
research and
resource center
that focuses on
policies and
issues that
affect Asians
and Asian
Americans; and
the programs
that are
available for
them. Attendees
will have the
prime
opportunity to
create new
relationships
and network with
colleagues like
themselves, from
different fields
across the
twenty-three
CUNY colleges.
Our hosts for
the evening will
be Michelle Yu
(NY1 News) and
Blossom Kan,
co-authors of
China Dolls: A
Novel. Newly
appointed Vice
Chancellor
Gloriana B.
Waters from the
CUNY Office of
Faculty and
Staff Relations,
and Hon.
Wellington Chen
from the CUNY
Board of
Trustees, will
be on hand to
give greetings
of behalf of the
University. A
photo exhibition
entitled, My
Reporting from
New York, by the
Chinese-American
Journalists,
will also be on
display.
It is vital that
all members of a
college become
involved with
and integrate
into the CUNY
family, as it
continues to be
the nation's
leading urban
public
university. In
order to make
this reception a
success, your
participation is
crucial.
