AASF is delighted to announce that Margaret Lewis, Brian Sun, and Peter Zeidenberg have joined the AASF Legal Advisory Council. The Council will advise AASF to build a network of attorneys experienced in defending Asian American scholars, and to stimulate dialogues among scholars, university administrators, government officials, and the general public.

AASF respectfully urges Chancellor Donde Plowman to reinstate Prof. Anming Hu’s tenured faculty position at the University Tennessee, Knoxville (UTK) and back-pay his full salary and benefits.
