The Asian & Asian American Center (A3C) is ecstatic to be celebrating 10 years of advocacy, education, identity, and community within the Asian, Pacific Islander, Desi/ American (APID/A) community! During the spring semester, the APID/A Graduation Ceremony Celebration is a pre-commencement event to honor and celebrate APID/A students’ academic achievements and leadership at Cornell! Last year was our inaugural ceremony. This year we look forward to recognizing the 100+ students whose graduation occurred during the Fall 2019 through Summer 2020 academic year. Please help us make this 2nd annual graduation celebration just as successful as our first one!

Please help us re-create a beautiful culturally rich atmosphere for this academic year's graduates. Our goal is to spark more joyous memories!
If you experience the "Freshman 15" at Cornell then make plans to live on West Campus your sophomore year to cancel it out! A donation at the Freshman Level pays for food for our celebration.
No time for tears, you have two more years! A donation at the Sophomore Level pays for two gifts for graduating seniors, a lei and a stole.
No need to fear, we are in our third year! Embrace your junior year for what it is. You're a long way from where you started and so close to finishing. A donation at the Junior Level contributes to the photographer who will take photos throughout the event and an individualized photo for social media and proud family!
Graduation is not the end; it is the beginning. You haven't even begun to peak! Let nothing stand in the way of what your future holds. A donation at the Senior Level will contribute to securing an inspirational keynote speaker.
Don't ever think you have to compare yourself to others; your journey is uniquely yours, no matter where you go or how you travel it. A donation at the Graduate Level gets A3C 10% closer to our goal in recognizing and celebrating our students!
