-: So my name is Joe Frazier and I am the
assistant director for the Cultural and Community Centers.
How that job plays out is I am the assistant director
for the Asian Cultural Engagement Center,
so it's one of six community centers that we have
throughout our department.
The Asian Cultural Engagement Center just came online
this year, and I also,
so on top of, yeah, running that center,
I also advise three other student organizations,
The Jewish Student Union, the Muslim Student Union,
and the Asian-American Student Union.
But the main thing of our Cultural and Community Centers
is they function as
spaces for students from marginalized backgrounds
here at Virginia Tech.
The spaces are really inclusive
for whoever wants to use them,
but specifically, their main mission
is to serve as a home away from home
for the many different students that we find here at Tech.
