Asian-American college students from across the East Coast
came to Durham this past weekend to talk about shared experiences and issues as
part of the annual East Coast Asian
American Student Union (ECAASU) conference.
Duke students took a leading role in organizing the two-day program.
ECAASU is the oldest and largest conference for Asian-American students in the United States.
