Asian Studies Hosts Fall 2017 Reception
The Center for the Study of Asia, an affiliated regional center of the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, hosted their annual Fall Reception on September 25, 2017 at the BU Photonics Center.
The event, which was organized in collaboration with the student group Asian Studies Initiative at Boston University (ASIABU), was filled with food, fun, and a dance performance by the BU Bhangra Dance Group.
Catherine Yeh, Director of the Center for the Study of Asia, welcomed students and faculty back to campus, and also introduced the major theme that the Center will be focusing on during this academic year, “Asia’s Cultural Heritage.”
The mission of the Boston University Center for the Study of Asia (BUCSA) is to promote comprehensive, interdisciplinary, and cross-national understanding of Asia at Boston University. Operationally, it provides a focal point and institutional support for the study of Asia across Boston University through coordination of teaching missions, support of research, community-building among faculty and students, and outreach beyond the university.
