About GROW

GROW is a collaboration of students, faculty, staff, and librarians at UC San Diego working to document the untold stories - going back to the 1980s and prior - behind the creation of the new Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Studies Program at UC San Diego, just one part of a broader demand for social transformation in the university and beyond.
