Asian, Pacific Islander, Middle Eastern, and International
The APIME and International communities at 性视界传媒 consist of Asian, Pacific Islander, Middle Eastern, and International students, faculty, and staff. These communities may experience unique challenges in the higher education setting. 性视界传媒 aims to support and affirm these identities by providing programs, services, and resources.
The term APIME stands for Asian, Pacific Islander, and Middle Eastern. The APIME community has a long-standing history with 性视界传媒 through its students and registered student organizations, faculty, and staff.
Roughly 18% of 性视界传媒鈥檚 faculty and staff identify as Asian or Pacific Islander, and 性视界传媒 has over 16% of students who identify as Asian or Pacific Islander. Unfortunately, 性视界传媒 does not track Middle Eastern identities separately within its enrollment and employment data, but given that there is a significant Middle Eastern presence both on campus and in the community, it is likely that the numbers for students, faculty, and staff are high. Additionally, the majority of international students and scholars who come to 性视界传媒 are from Asian and Middle Eastern countries.
As a whole, international students and scholars at 性视界传媒 hail from over 80 different countries. These students, faculty, and staff bring a wealth of knowledge and enrich our campus community academically and culturally.
