Any help you could provide promoting this opportunity your Asian American constituents would be greatly appreciated! Please find attached the event poster as well as the event blurb pasted below:

"The Model Minority Myth From First Gen College Student Perspectives", February 18 (Thurs), 7:00pm-8:30pm

Join us for a conversation exploring how  first-generation college Asian-American college students may: 1) Experience barriers to high education; 2) Navigate higher education, especially predominantly white institutions; and 3) Explore career paths during and after college. We hope this event will provide a space for mentorship and support, and foster a deeper sense of community and empowerment.
