AAAFSC needs your help! Please consider running for a board position!

Dear Members of the Asian and Asian American Faculty and Staff Council:

 

Welcome back to the start of a new term! I am writing with important news about board leadership. As you all know, our chair, Theo Gonzalves left for a job at the Smithsonian about a year ago and our secretary, Susan Han has also left UMBC. We wish them the very best in their new endeavors and look forward to establishing new leadership for the council.

 

And so, I am writing with two very urgent requests:

 

First, please consider running for a board position. Are you interested in becoming the next chair or vice-chair for the board? Could you see yourself serving as secretary? I am happy to run as chair—but in that case we would need a vice-chair and secretary. The members at large for our group (Fan Yang, Amy Bhatt, and Shuyan Sun) are going to remain in their positions, so we will have their support through this transition. If you are interested but have any questions, please feel free to reach out!  We would LOVE to see the involvement on the board spread out through our colleges. It’s a great opportunity to think about how to recruit, retain, and promote Asian and Asian American faculty and staff on our campus as well as to think about programming for faculty, staff, and students.

 

Second, many departments are in the midst of hiring. We really need support from our members to meet with potential candidates. If you can help the board serve in this capacity please let me know (tbhalla@umbc.edu).  We already have requests that we can’t handle alone. It’s another great way to be involved and support AAAFSC even if you can’t serve on the board.

 

Many thanks for your attention to this email! Please feel free to nominate folks you think might be good for these positions as well!

 

Again, please feel free to reach out with any questions at tbhalla@umbc.edu.

 

My best wishes, for a great spring semester!

 

Tamara

High-Tech Housewives and H-4 “Dreamers”: South Asian Immigration in a Changing Landscape

Wednesday, December 5, 2018 · 4 PM - 5:30 PM
Library and Gallery, Albin O. Kuhn : Gallery
Amy Bhatt, Associate Professor, Gender, Women's, + Sexuality Studies; and Affiliate Associate Professor in the Language, Literacy, and Culture and Asian Studies Programs, UMBC
Tech companies such as Google, Amazon, and Microsoft promote the free flow of data worldwide, while relying on foreign, temporary IT workers to build, deliver, and support their products. However, even as IT companies use technology and commerce to transcend national barriers, their transnational employees and their families face significant migration and visa constraints. In this talk based on her ethnographic research, Amy Bhatt shines a spotlight on Indian IT migrants and their struggles to navigate family obligations, career paths, citizenship, and belonging as they move between South Asia and the United States.

A book signing and reception to follow

Hmong Americans’ historically asymmetrical relationship with the United States government and their contemporary experiences as a marginalized ethnic group have much in common with the experiences of other Asian Americans. At the same time, Hmong relationships with their “homeland” countries, with the U.S. racial state, and with other racial and ethnic groups in American society and elsewhere are unique and complex. Most publications—both scholarly and popular sources on the Hmong, as well as those on Hmong in Asia and Hmong in the diaspora—are still written primarily from the perspective of non-Hmong persons. Our concern about the state and progress of the field is that Hmong’s voices, perspectives, and lived experiences are often distorted or excluded altogether. Equally problematic are analyses that divorce Hmongs’ social conditions from their historical and political contexts.

I am a graduate student in the Language, Literacy and Culture Program. I write asking your participation in a research study on faculty diversity at this institution. The purpose of this study is to examine faculty diversity initiatives at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, a historically diverse institution. The study will use a qualitative case study design to explore how these initiatives are perceived among tenure-track faculty and administrators within the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (CAHSS).
 
As part of the study, I am asking all tenure-track CAHSS faculty to complete an on-line qualitative survey. The survey is completely voluntary and anonymous. It will not contain information that may identify you. Specifically, the survey does not ask for names or department affiliations but only tenure track confirmation and racial/ethnic self-identification. All data will only be reported in the aggregate. The survey should take about 12 minutes to complete. I would sincerely appreciate your participation. Please click the link at the bottom of this email to begin the survey. If you would like to speak with me directly, please call my cell phone at 410-262-2850 or email me at sstocks1@umbc.eu. You may also contact my faculty adviser, Dr. Mavis G. Sanders, at 410-455-2738 (msanders@umbc.edu). Thank you for your time and consideration.

Very Best,
Shawntay Stocks, ABD
