At this conference, we invite high school students to discuss issues Asian Americans face today and how to effectively address those issues. Student leaders and faculty members of Yale will lead the workshops and moderate discussions. We will have lectures and smaller seminar styled sections. In addition, we hold social activities as breaks for the students to network and a debriefing session to further encourage discussion among the students. Through these sessions, we hope to give our attendees a taste of what activism means and how to be an effective leader.
