The AAACC is awarded the 2021 WCC Professional Equity Award

The Women’s Classical Caucus has announced that the AAACC has been awarded their 2021 Professional Equity Award!

This advocacy award is given annually to “an institution that has taken measures to improve equality and diversity in our field, and whose culture is a model for other institutions.” Candidates are nominated by the public and then voted upon by the WCC Steering Committee.

Thank you the WCC for the recognition and support!

 
 

The SCS interviewed our AAACC officers on the occasion of the award, and we spoke about our origin story, our programming, pandemic challenges, and advice for other Asian and Asian American scholars of Classics (published on the SCS Blog on February 10, 2021).
