Building a Sustainable Platform and Pipeline for AAPI Leadership in Higher Education

Thursday, March 9, 2023 | 1pm to 2:30pm EST

There is a glaring lack of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) representation in higher education leadership, although AAPIs may be well represented in the ranks of faculty and the student body. Participants will learn about the importance of creating a platform for collaboration and synergy among AAPI leaders who have reached the position of president/chancellor in higher education, and a sustainable pipeline to support ascending AAPI leaders.
