9-10 March 2007 Midwest Asian American Student Union Spring Conference @ the University of Illinois
We highly encourage all students to attend the Midwest Asian American Student Union Spring Conference, to be held on the University of Illinois campus on March 9-11, 2007. Adapted from the official MAASU website:
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is proud to announce the return of the Midwest Asian American Student Union's annual Spring Conference on March 9-11, 2007. This year's conference theme is Embrace, Empower and Envision. The three day conference, with expected attendance of over 700 guests from over 30 Midwest schools, encompasses many facets of Asian American life including culture, education, and activism.
The Midwest Asian American Student Union Spring Conference is an annual conference held in addition to the Fall Leadership Retreat. The Spring Conference draws approximately 700 students from over 30 Midwest schools. The weekend conference encompasses many facets of Asian American life including culture, education, and activism.
The MAASU Spring Conference, however, is much more than simply an educational conference. It is an entire experience of Asian American life. Not only are there opportunities to learn about culture, social and political issues, and activism, but there are ample opportunities for coalition building between schools. Asian American leaders from across the Midwest gather at Spring Conference and this collective voice has the potential to become a powerful and inspirational force.
This year, the theme for the conference is Embrace, Empower, Envision. By this, our planning committee implies that as Asian Americans we need to embrace the past, empower the present, and envision the future. Our speakers, workshops, cultural showings, and other various facets of the conference hope to convey this message to our participants.
The MAASU conference experience actively engages participants from all over the Midwest and beyond. MAASU has proven in the past to inspire and motivate students to create change.
