Our goal is to showcase the rich diversity of cultures, religions, histories, languages, festivals, and artistic talents within the Asian American community, as well as student work related to Asian American Studies. Launched in 2016 at LaGuardia Community College/CUNY, the journal is now expanding to include the work of all CUNY undergraduate/graduate students, with support from the Asian American / Asian Research Institute (AAARI).

- Solicit, review, and provide feedback on two to four student submissions each semester.
- Attend at least two virtual editorial board meetings per semester.
- Participate in the journal’s launch event in May.
Qualifications:
- Be affiliated with the City University of New York.
- Have a genuine interest in Asian and Asian American cultures and communities.

Additionally, explain how your involvement would benefit you personally and professionally.
