DENVER — For Asian American and Pacific Islander students at the University of Colorado Denver, new recognition from the federal government is making the campus a more welcoming place.
Last year, CU Denver was designated by the federal government as an Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution . It’s the first university in Colorado, and the six-state Rocky Mountain region, to earn the title. Nguyen said CU Denver is the first AANAPISI in the United States to be student-led. She describes it as a relay race, where students will do their part while on campus and then pass the baton to future students when they graduate.In her role, Nguyen helps support students by"identifying gaps within our programming to see why students drop out or why they're not doing well.
“After we learn more, where all the gaps and barriers are, we hope to utilize some of this funding, the grants that we have, to really provide and create,” Tran said.“Our biggest goal was how do we help our students here at CU Denver become more successful," Tran said."So even though AANAPISI is really designated for a specific demographic... our job and purpose and goal is to find, how do we utilize this and open it up for all students.
