APIDA Heritage Month Recognition / First-Gen Empowerment Series

Date: Wednesday, April 9, 2025, 6 p.m. - 7 p.m.

Location: Ohio Union, Suite 1000, Alonso Family Room

Cost: Free

Asian, Pacific Islander, and Desi American (APIDA) Heritage Month is a month-long celebration of APIDA identities, experiences, histories, and cultures. Nationally, APIDA Heritage Month is recognized in May. Because this is after the end of the academic year, the program is hosted during April. This event will explore APIDA history in the US and contemporary issues affecting APIDA people today. All are welcome to attend! Food will be served.

This event is also part of the First-Gen Empowerment Series.

The First-Gen Empowerment Series consists of weekly open, drop-in workshops designed to help first-generation college students get familiar with college in general and Ohio State specifically, connect to university resources, and develop strategies to thrive here at Ohio State and beyond! While created with first-gen college students in mind, any student can benefit from these workshops, and all students are more than welcome to attend. No matter where you are in your college journey, you don’t have to go it alone!
