About the ASC: Asian Student Commission
The Asian Student Commission was founded in 1985 as an organization that would serve to promote Asian cultural awareness on the University of Washington campus, for all students. The Commission is a representative of the voices and issues surrounding the University's Asian community which accounts for over 30% of the student population (both undergraduate and graduate levels). Throughout the academic school year, ASC is involved in fostering social, political, as well as community activities.
The commission also serves as the overseeing umbrella organization uniting the many diverse Asian student organizations on campus. Bi-weekly ASC meetings are organized by the Commission Director to facilitate dialogue and create a support system between these groups. These meetings encourage coordination, communication, transperancy, growth, and kinship between Asians on campus.
Each year ASC creates programs for both the University and community at large to enjoy, embrace, and celebrate Asian cultures. These range from events such as
- Interorganizational Mixers
- Fried Rice Fair
- ASC Talent Show
- Bite of Asia Food Festival
- ASC Sports Day
- Movie Screenings
- API Heritage Month
- Professional Nights
- Art Displays
- Drama Productions
- High School Outreach
- Diversity Speakers
- Volunteer Opportunities
...among a growing list of other events as well as co-sponsored events with the constituents of ASC.
