Staff writer,
Amerasia Week, a Week of
cultural fun and activities planned
by various Asian clubs on cam¬
pus^ offers plenty to keep stu¬
dents both entertained and {pore
culturally aware.
Amerasia Week is a special
celebration of all the Asians and
theit cultures, said Karen Xiong,
20, an undeclared freshman
Each Asian culture will have
a day of its own, Xiong said
This gives the people on cam-
*pus and in the community a
chance to learn more about, the
different cultures, she said.
Amerasia Week is also spe-.
cial because its composi bon is dis¬
tinctive, offering multiethnic ac-
. rjvities and shows, whereas other
ethnic eyents focus on only one
culture, said Franklin Ng, profes¬
sor of anthropology.
We try to include a global perspective
of Asian cultures.'
—Katsuyo Howard

i Each year, the community
comes to see the cultural shows
because of their uniqueness, such
as the cultural dress and dances,
he said. \
Coordinated under the um¬
brella of the Amerasia Club, cam¬
pus Asian clubs will work to fa¬
cilitate programs and activities,
Ngsaid.

Amerasia Week has incorporated
different Asian cultures into the
event expanding the days and
programs.
