Despite all that we have dealt with this past year, there were some positive takeaways. With all this extra time on our hands, many took the initiative to pick up new skills & hobbies to keep their brains and bodies active.

As mentioned in last week’s blog post, we can’t express how much gratitude we have for each and every individual that made this past year possible.

Our communities face so many obstacles outside of the classroom such as homelessness, food insecurity, and community violence, that when students arrive on campus we …
It goes without question that the recent events we’ve seen transpire across this country towards the Asian American & Pacific Islander Community community are beyond sickening & disappointing.
