Thank you for visiting the Asian-Pacific Studies Program’s webpage. Due to the COVID-19 situation, the program office is currently closed. All of our classes have adopted alternative modes of instruction, which began on March 23, 2020, and we will serve our students and others remotely. Although we encounter many uncertainties now, our faculty and staff are committed to delivering the mission of our University and to supporting our students. Please take a moment to read the following information and updates:

Upcoming events, rallies and vigils
As a way to provide our students, faculty and staff with healing space where they can share experiences, build community and regain a sense of safety and confidence, Asian Pacific Studies will host two online sessions of restorative healing space in March. We have scheduled a session for students on March 26th at 5:00 p.m. and a session for faculty and staff on March 30th at 10:00 a.m. Please click this link for details and sign-ups. If you have any questions about the healing space, please contact Dr. Connie Chang at cochang@csudh.edu.
Additionally, Asian Pacific Studies will host two Healing Circles workshops in late April and early May in collaboration with Student Psychological Services. We will share the dates and times at a later date.
One virtual and two in-person vigils and rallies for anti-Asian hate crimes are scheduled for this Saturday, March 27. Please see below for details:
