4th Annual Asian Pacific Islander Heritage Month 2013

ASIAN STUDENT ASSOCIATION FOR PROGRESS (ASAP) is hosting Asian Pacific Islander Heritage Month at Lone Star College North Harris, in collaboration with the Office of Diversity Intiatives and Student Activities. ASAP hopes to celebrate and raise awareness about the different facets of Asian American culture during the month of April.
