General Information:
Courses in Asian American Studies have been offered at
Colby College through the American Studies program since
1996. While students can not major or minor specifically in
Asian American Studies, students may concentrate in Asian
American Studies as part of the major in American Studies.
Students may also construct a comparative American ethnic
studies concentration within the American Studies major.
The American Studies curriculum is undergoing significant
change: the Introduction to American Studies has been
revised as an introduction to comparative American cultural
studies, and a two-course diversity requirement is
currently under consideration. The Asian American Student
Association is an active
organization on campus
Topics/Courses:
Introduction to Asian American Cultures
Contemporary Asian American Women Writers
(cross listed with English and Women’s Studies)
