This event will focus on how Asian Americans are looking for support in the wake of the Atlanta killings. More details below.

I would also like to follow up on our previous email to remind us to vote in the upcoming Harvard Alumni Association (HAA) elections. The HAA plays an important role to represent us, the alumni community, and I hope you can vote. Deadline for voting is coming up soon, on May 18th!

So please, do come join us - in some or all of the above!

Rebecca Woo (AB '89)

April 27 - Allyship Series: After Atlanta, How Do Asian Americans Want Us to Show Up?

Havrard Allyship
HUAAS invites you to join an event on Allyship with the Asian American community. This event will focus on how Asian Americans are looking for support in the wake of the Atlanta killings of 6 Asian women a few weeks ago. Speakers include Harvard Professor Ju Yon Kim and alumna, professor and filmmaker Renee Tajima-Peña, and will delve into the history of Anti-Asian hate in America and actions we can all take to support the Harvard Asian American Alumni community.

The conversation will be facilitated by Sheryl WuDunn, author and award-winning journalist, business and finance consultant and alumni leader.

Deadline May 18 - Voting for Harvard Alumni Association

Harvard Alumni Association
Please remember to vote in the upcoming election for Harvard’s Board of Overseers and Harvard Alumni Association’s Elected Directors!

The history of the Overseers goes back to the foundation of Harvard in 1636, and all its members are Harvard alumni, who are nominated and elected by alumni. It is a standout factor in Harvard’s governance that makes it unique. The Overseers’ purpose is to maintain Harvard’s academic excellence and its ability to make a difference in the world (which also reflects on our own credentials). Their primary role is to lead the academic and administrative visiting committees to the Graduate Schools and the College.

To find out more information on the Overseers candidates beyond that included with the ballot, Harvard Magazine has interviewed all the Overseers candidates and their full responses are here: https://harvardmagazine.com/2021/01/harvard-overseer-prospects-views .

Your online ballot will arrive in an email from the Elections Services Corporation (ESC) from this address: [email protected]. If you don’t receive a ballot, please check your spam folders

Let’s vote!
