The Asian Initiative celebrates and promotes Asian and Asian American identity and culture. We create a sense of community and develop cultural understanding through education, awareness, and appreciation. Our goal is to develop programming and offer support to students to increase student enrollment and improve college access for Asian and Asian American Wolverines who are otherwise underserved.

To support these goals, we are currently developing the Asian Initiative. Check back soon for more information about how we support our Asian and Asian American students, staff, faculty, and community.
