Scope and Content Notes

The Asian & Pacific Cultural Center (APCC) Records document the activities and resources used by the center in order to further their goal of providing an engaging space for students and community members around the Asian and Pacific Islander experience.

The collection contains information surrounding the administration of the center including budget information, reports, handbooks, and employee information. There is also a robust collection of meeting minutes and materials. Materials surrounding the administration and promotion of affiliated OSU clubs and organizations that are related to APA cultural engagement are kept as well.

Next, a collection of resources used to better inform students and staff within the center as well as the OSU campus at large are included. These resources contain information on specific countries represented within the APA community, multicultural advising guides, statistics, and cultural recipes.

Events were also a big part of the Center’s engagement within the community. Materials about the events put on by the center and on OSU's campus, as well as related events in surrounding communities are also represented in the form of planning and promotional materials.

Publications put out by the center and related programs on campus are kept in a series as well. There are also Newspaper clippings saved that are related to the center and its community members.

Then, there are materials related to the remodel and relocation of the center. These show architectural designs and schematics. Some of the materials also include information on the remodel/relocations of other cultural centers including the Cesar Chavez Cultural Center (CCCC), the Black Cultural Center (BCC), and the Native American Longhouse.

A large collection of photographic materials are contained within the collection too. They depict events organized by the APCC including Japanese Cultural Night, a skiing trip, an end-of-the-year barbeque, an inter-racial dating workshop, Sibling Weekend Events, and a food-eating contest. Other images include views of the building housing the APCC and portrait shots of APCC members and staff. Most of the items are color prints and negatives.

Digitized versions of eight APCC curated photo albums are available online. The albums depict APCC events and activities as well as Oregon State students and staff affiliated with the Center for 1987-2004. Most of the albums depict a one- or two-year period. The albums include images of holiday celebrations, including New Year events; social gatherings; cooking demonstrations; dance performances; retreats and workshops; and renovations to the Center's facilities as well as newsletters. Other student organizations are documented in the albums, including the International Students of OSU (ISOSU); Vietnamese Student Association; Laotian Student Association; and Hui O Hawaii. The albums include images of the staff of other cultural centers at Oregon State as well as training offered by Diversity Development staff. Also included are 13 albums of the OSU Hui o Hawai'i organization, dated from the late 1980s to the mid-2000s, as well as a 1998-1999 OSU Asian Pacific American Education Office album. The original albums have been retained by the Center.

The collection also includes posters and tabletop display panels created by the APCC and other Asian and Pacific Islander organizations and clubs at Oregon State. These were featured at APCC events to publicize student associations; they also include general information about the APCC. Some of the panels are topic-oriented, addressing subjects such as health issues in Hawai’i, the Chinese zodiac calendar, the voyages of Zheng He, and AIDS in the red light districts of India. Many of the posters include photographs. Digital photographs of all of the posters are available upon request; not all physical posters were retained.

Biographical / Historical Notes

Statement on Access: Collection is open for research.

Statement on Description:

We acknowledge that materials in SCARC collections and the language that describes them may be harmful. We are actively working to address our descriptive practices; for more information please see our SCARC Anti-Racist Actions Statement online.

SCARC describes the contents of its collections using the language and terminology of the collections themselves. Since culturally acceptable terminology shifts over time, some of the terms that appear in these materials are currently outdated or offensive. For instance, the terms “undocumented immigrant” or simply "noncitizen" have now replaced the once widely used, and dehumanizing, term "alien" - this term is present in this collection in reference to the title and body of a 1991 master's thesis kept within the APCC resources. Nevertheless, these materials are part of Asian American histories in that they can provide valuable insight into the social construction of race, the perception and treatment of immigrants, and the presence of Asian American communities and cultures.
