Campaign for Pilipino Studies
Samahang Pilipino understands the importance of a relevant education that provides students with an opportunity to engage in dialogue and better understand the Pilipino history, culture and language. This year, we will prioritize the advancement of Pilipino Studies as part of the university curriculum by working with the Asian American Studies Department, South East Asian Studies as well as other Pilipina/o organizations system-wide.
We follow a legacy of advocacy and will continue in this struggle to ensure our community is represented in all aspects of the university. Samahang Pilipino is connected to a larger struggle demanding the prioritization of ethnic, gender and queer/LGBT studies on campus. This year is no different.
