7C Asian American Advisory Board

7C Asian American Advisory Board (AdBoard)

We are open to ALL 7C Asian American and Pacific Islande May is a short month, with many final exams for students.

With respect to AdBoard's mission of creating 7C AAPI (Asian American and Pacific Islander) community, we put on these events:

1. First-year retreats: AdBoard funds all of the first-year sponsor group retreats.

2. First-year follow-up: The purpose of this event is to create 7C AAPI community among the sponsees/first years with the consideration that AAPI community was built at the home campuses

during the first-year retreat that is funded by AdBoard.

3. Graduate Student Programming: The purpose of these programs is to support community building among AAPI graduate students across CGU and KGI. Programs may range from social mixers to academic conferences to workshops, as well as ways to foster connections between the graduate and undergraduate students at the 7C.

4. Spring Conference: This is an opportunity to do a conference that the whole AAPI student population can come together and do workshops, listen to speakers, and participate in community building activities. In the past we have done an AAPI Arts & Activism workshop, and a Little Tokyo Political Tour.

5. APAHM (Asian Pacific Heritage Month): Nationally celebrated in the month of May, the Claremont colleges celebrate it in April. With that said, April is a heavy programming month for the colleges and in an effort not to over-program, AdBoard creates an educational poster campaign that informs the Claremont community of Asian American history or Asian American issues that are disseminated across the 7C's.

6. 7C AAPI Grad: This is to celebrate the achievements of Asian American students across the 7C's with their family and friends. Working class families and/or limited-English speaking families have expressed that this is the only graduation ceremony that they can attend due to their work schedules. Students are also able to say a few words of thanks and appreciation during the ceremony in their "home" languages. Over the past 2 years, the AAPI commencement has doubled in size and is growing more popular. If you'd like to volunteer to help with any of these programs, please email [email protected]

Last but definitely not least, meet our AdBoard Student Coordinator Anika!

I’m a CS + Math major from the Bay Area, California. I’m here to foster and strengthen the Asian community, especially the South Asian community, across the 5Cs through my work as an Adboard intern. I’m excited to help build connections that make the 5Cs feel more like home for everyone!

Meet Magz our AdBoard Student Coordinator!

I’m from Portland, Oregon. I am an Engineering 3-2 major with a passion for community engagement and helping to meet their needs. While my academia is centered in STEM, I have chosen to explore my values around community building and APIDA identity through AdBoard. I love being outdoors and am apart of flag football!
