This month, the country acknowledges and celebrates Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month. This month provides a valuable opportunity to recognize the diverse cultures, histories, and contributions of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders to the Shenandoah University community and society.
As a university community committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, this month provides an additional opportunity to reflect on the unique experiences and challenges faced by AAPI individuals. By acknowledging and understanding these experiences, people can work together to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all members of the community.
As SU celebrates AAPI Heritage Month, the university community is encouraged to reaffirm its commitment to fostering a campus environment where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to thrive.
