This course explores a variety of questions and narratives central to Asian American identity, specifically within the residential setting of Okada house, the Asian American theme dorm. The Okada ETA Team and Pre-assigns will be facilitating a weekly presentation that examines different components of Asian American history and issues central to the Asian American movement today such as the school-to-prison-to-deportation pipeline and gentrification. Most broadly, this course hopes to provide historical and sociopolitical context to what being Asian American means in the present day and how to provide concrete skills to engage with Asian American identity and the community. This course begins Week 1 and includes a required off-campus trip, date TBD. Attendance at all sessions is required. The course is open to all students, but non-Okada Pre-assigns will need permission from the Okada Resident Fellow (Instructor) to enroll. Please contact the RF prior to the first meeting if you plan to enroll.

The Violence Intervention and Prevention Program (VIP) is a collaboration between the Office of Sexual Harassment/Assault Response & Education (SHARE) and the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life. The VIP Program is an opportunity offered to Stanford fraternity and sorority community members who are committed to addressing the issues of sexual and relationship violence on campus. Fraternity and sorority representatives will engage with one another within a small cohort of Violence Intervention and Prevention Chairs (VIP Chairs) and gain the skills and training necessary to create a culture of sexual citizenship, affirming the right of every individual to sexual self-determination while promoting care, equity, and accountability among all members of the community. VIP Chairs will learn how to facilitate a wide range of educational programs to cultivate a culture of sexual citizenship for their respective chapter and for the Greek community and Stanford community as a whole. The VIP Program was founded on the belief that students can cultivate change for themselves and their communities in relation to sexual and relationship violence by providing peer to peer education and support. This program is a best practice and national model and is open to any student who is a member of a recognized fraternity or sorority on campus.
