Thanks to all students and alumni who joined us on campus for our Alumni Reception and Banquet on November 20, 2009, and congratulations to Jack Hasegawa, recipient of AAAYA’s first annual “Friend of the Community” Award.
It was a busy day for AAAYA: the national board had its second annual meeting to discuss plans for fundraising, board structure, and building new local chapters (if you’re interested in serving on the board, contact us and let us know!). After the meeting, students and alumni met at the Asian American Cultural Center for a reception, followed by a banquet at Seoul Garden restaurant.
The evening’s highlight was the presentation of our first annual “Friend of the Community” award to Jack Hasegawa. Jack, a former general secretary of Dwight Hall, was the first director of Asian American affairs at Yale from 1981-1985.
Video and photos from the evening are below. Also, after the jump, you can read AAAYA President Kunduck Moon’s introduction for Jack Hasegawa.

The Asian American Cultural Center (AACC) at Yale is looking for alumni to sponsor students in a week-long unpaid externship in various cities, including NYC, LA, DC, Chicago, Boston, and San Francisco. In its fifth year, the program was established to give students a glimpse into life after Yale. Students shadow their sponsor at the work place and might be given a small independent project. Each sponsor usually sponsors one or two students. Students are responsible for their own housing and transportation. The AACC also hosts a community dinner for sponsors and student externs during the week. Thus far, feedback from sponsors and externs has been overwhelmingly positive. We hope you will become involved in this rewarding program!
Please read the sponsorship form for additional information and instructions on how to sign up.
