The history of the Asian Center for Empowerment
The Asian Center for Empowerment was officially opened on October 3, 1998. It came about through the struggles of students for over a decade.

Although the house is used by Asian, South Asian and Asian American ethnic, cultural and political organizations on campus, it also serves as a meeting space, a support space and a space where people can gather and socialize.
