"During Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, we
honor the perseverance of those who courageously reached for their hopes
and dreams in a new land, and we celebrate the important impact the
AAPI community has made on our Nation's progress." (President Barack Obama).
While Asian Pacific American Heritage Month is celebrated nationally during the month of May, CMU celebrates March 15 to April 15, during the spring semester.
