Asian Pacific Islander Alumni Council
UC San Diego’s Asian-Pacific Islander Alumni Council is a volunteer-led affinity group supported by UC San Diego Alumni Relations. UC San Diego has grown into a university with one of the largest Asian Pacific-Islander (API) student populations in the country. As one of the fastest growing ethnic groups in the United States, it is imperative to organize our collective voice within our university community and engage with every level of the alumni organization.
Council Mission
The ongoing mission of the Council is to positively influence, unite, advocate and promote the UC San Diego Asian-Pacific Islander community of alumni, students, staff and faculty. As an inclusive community, we function to provide meaningful opportunities and resources for: professional and personal support, engagement, representation and mentorship.
