Join QCAP (the Queens College AANAPISI Project) and AACS (QC’s Asian American Community Studies program) on Monday, September 29, 2025, from 12:15-1:30pm, in the Muyskens Conference Room in the Summit (see campus map) for our Fall Kick-off event!
We’ll be decorating paper lanterns together. Participating at the kick-off also grants you entry to a free raffle for a chance to win some cute stationery!
Snacks will be provided!
QCAP is mask-friendly—masks are encouraged, because we want to keep our communities as safe and healthy as possible, but they are not required.
About QCAP
The Queens College AANAPISI Project (QCAP) aims to support the academic success, mental health, and community engagement of QC’s diverse and underserved Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) students and all QC students. Funded by a grant from the U.S. Department of Education’s Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions (AANAPISI) Program, QCAP addresses the specific needs of our AAPI students via a range of programs. To learn more, visit the QCAP website and follow us on Instagram @qcap.queens.
About AACS
Asian American Community Studies (AACS) is an interdisciplinary academic program at QC, housed in the Urban Studies department. AACS courses and programming are open to anyone interested in learning more about AAPI communities (with roots in Central, East, South, Southeast, and West Asia and the Pacific Islands, and including Asian diasporas like Indo-Caribbeans) and the field of Asian American studies. AACS is also a minor! The AACS Minor provides opportunities for students from all majors to learn about the complex histories, cultures, and politics of Asian America; to connect critical inquiry and action for social change; and to engage in research and service learning here in Queens/NYC. The minor is ideal for students who want to pursue careers in the arts, business, education, government, healthcare, international affairs, the law, nonprofits, social services, and more. To learn more about AACS and the minor, visit the AACS webpage and follow us on Instagram @aacsatqc.
