Voices of Asian Americans in Higher Education: Unheard Voices is a
unique and historical book. Asian Americans are often portrayed as
"model minority", yet their personal and educational experiences
are often unheard. In this book, 10 Asian American educators and
scholars present realistic pictures of America's higher education
using personal narratives. The contributors in this book come from
different regions and teach in different colleges and universities;
and coincidentally, they all endure the "outsider" category
formerly as students and now as professors and leaders. This
"outsider" status can be emotionally overwhelming and
psychologically unnerving. This status hampers opportunities for
Asian Americans to grow and maximize their fullest potential.
Though they develop different strategies to address their
"outsider" label, it does not make it comfortable. But, time and
time again, they have proven that they can succeed! In this
technological age, we must value unending truths as we educate
ourselves and others. We hope that this book will be an educational
and informational resource for students, administrators, and
faculty in higher education and also educational policy makers and
stakeholders.
