Our Mission

CAPAS seeks to enrich and develop social, intellectual and personal growth in our students by providing Asian American resources as well as a welcoming, supportive environment. The Center serves as an advocate for the Asian and Pacific Islander community and promotes an educational dialogue that embraces the unique experiences of ethnic communities, the cultural fabric of our institution.

April is Asian Pacific American and Islander Heritage Month. We have a variety of events planned including a tour of a noodle factory, a visit to the Cherry Blossom Festival in Los Angeles, and an improv group. Full list of events>
