Sections 1-3 Table of Contents Appendix B Assessment of Major Federal Data Sets for Analyses of Hispanic and Asian or Pacific Islander Subgroups and Native Americans Appendix A: Tables A-1 Through A-4 Note The information shown in Tables A-1 through A-3 provides a reasonable approximation of the number of subpopulation sample cases contained in each survey, for Hispanics, Asians and Pacific Islanders, and for American Indians or Alaska Natives. The following should be noted: Many of the numbers shown in the tables are approximations, meaning that they are not exact, but rather provide a relatively reasonable measure of magnitude. As might be expected, the sample sizes will vary somewhat, among the months, waves, or rounds of the surveys, reflecting changes in response, coverage, and sampling variability. Such slight differences, however, do not affect the analyses or conclusions contained in either the Task 2 or Task 3 reports. In most cases, the information reflects the design in use and the sample sizes as of the data collection period noted earlier. Census 2000 and the ACS detail reflect the current understanding of the proposed, respective activity. As in recent censuses, Census 2000 consists of both a limited number of questions asked of the full population (the short form), and a more detailed set of questions asked of about 1 household in six (long form). For this report, the sample sizes shown in the appropriate tables are restricted to the long form, which covers the detailed economic and social information.

The program is built around training in East, Southeast, and South Asian languages, but courses cover many aspects of East Asian history, literature, and cultures. Other courses cover the cultures and experiences of Asian Americans and Asian diaspora communities. Two areas of focus are open to Asian Studies majors: East Asian Studies and Comparative Asian Studies. The East Asian Studies option focuses on China, Japan, or Korea and the languages, histories, literatures, cultures, art, and religions of the region. The Comparative Asian Studies option allows students to take a broader perspective by developing a comparative, interdisciplinary approach to the study of different geographical and cultural areas of Asia and Asian America. Both options lead to a Bachelor of Arts degree. The Asian Studies program also offers an approved subject matter preparation program for the Multiple Subject teaching credential. Students who complete such a program are exempt from subject matter examinations when applying for a teaching credential program.

84. E-zines, Fanzines, Magazines (I’m bi.) Yikes. It reminds me of the WWIIera, when some non-Japanese Asian Americanswould wear badges proclaiming themselves to be anything but Japanese. http://members.aol.com/Critchicks/zines.html

[zines: maga- + otherwise] This list is divided into sections which are only slightly arbitrary. There are e-zines deriving from print magazines and fanzines and then there’s a list of print fanzines . There’s some overlap, but hey, I’m not exactly an organizational genius so bear with me. [e-zines] Hues Manushi is an India-based publication for human rights and progressive politics. The website for the Asian Pacific American Women's Journal is waaay under construction, but keep watching it for more. Hopefully. New Style American Girlie is an e-zine by the sass twenty-something feminist Mary Chen. Check out the "Girl Code of Honor" and the very good "Yellow Fever" feature essay in which Chen definitively states: "From what I've seen [...], Asian friends is more about accessorizing....Race isn't a skirt-length, it shouldn't come in and out of style." She promises it'll be updated and added to soon: go here and bug her until she does! [print zines] This list is hardly complete, and comes from my larger listings from evolution of a race riot Not all of them are current (I’ll note the ones that are defunct), but most are (hopefully). Nor do I have copies of all these zines. The ones I don’t will be obvious, there’s little to no commentary, and what little there is was gleaned from other review sources. Some of them I know how much to send for a copy, others I don’t. I would say go ahead and drop a postcard first to find out if the zine is still around (or the zinester); or blow the three stamps to send a letter with two spare stamps for the editor to respond. I did try to contact most of the (fan-)zinesters, but many didn’t respond. Ah, such is the nature of the wild fanzine. I also should point out that the length of my commentary is purely subjective, varying according to the time of day, month, my dinner, my bathing habits, and so forth. The content of my commentary is another thing.
