EWCA - ASIAN STUDIES DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (ASDP)

Region: Constituent/Special Interest

 

The ASDP Alumni Chapter was established to help ASDP program alumni support the Asian Studies Development Program in its efforts to enhance undergraduate teaching and learning about Asian cultures and societies, and to support the East-West Center (EWC) in its mission of contributing to the realization of a just, prosperous and equitable Asia-Pacific community. The ASDP Alumni Chapter cooperates with the East-West Center Association (EWCA) Executive Board and the EWC Alumni Association Office to promote activities and initiatives consistent with the EWC mission.

The ASDP Alumni Chapter was the first non-geographic, special interest alumni chapter and remains the largest chapter in the EWC Alumni Association. The general meeting of the ASDP Alumni Chapter is held annually in conjunction with the ASDP National Conference. The elected Chapter leadership includes a President and Vice-President/President Elect (2-year terms), Secretary and Treasurer (5-year terms), and three Members-at-Large (3-year terms). The President, upon conclusion of their two-year term, serves as Past-President (ex-officio, non-voting) for an additional year to ease the transition process.

With volunteer assistance, the ASDP Alumni Chapter maintains several social media sites, including Facebook and LinkedIn, that features news about ASDP alumni and programs, and other content relevant to expanding and enhancing undergraduate Asian studies.
