Asian American Student Union (AASU)

---

The Asian American Student Union (AASU) is a political organization for Asian American*, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, and Alaskan Native students at Scripps College. AASU seeks to

• Strengthen communities at Scripps College and across the 5Cs, helping our members build relationships with each other and with other students of color

• Provide a space for our members to explore issues such as race, class, gender, sexuality, disability, and nationality in both a political and personal context. Explore necessary tools to organize and grow communities at Scripps to create a more equitable campus environment
• Build awareness of Asian American histories and current issues, and how they relate to the histories and issues of other people of color
• Foster spaces on campus that AAPI can call their own

We hope to love, support, and politicize our communities. By developing our membership, we hope to build a Scripps community where students of color are able to develop closer, meaningful, and more supportive relationships with one another. We see this emphasis on collaboration as a manifestation of our collective political commitment to create a Scripps that is equitable and accountable to people of color communities and their struggles.
