Announcing 2021-22 Event Theme
We鈥檙e excited to share our theme for this academic year and look forward to working with colleagues across campus to discover all that we can do with it!
The CAS theme for the 2021-22 academic year is 鈥淚ntermountain Asia鈥. With this theme we seek to recognize the many Asianists who work in the Rocky Mountain Front Range and neighboring areas, along with the importance of building a community of Asianists within this region. We also draw attention to the myriad connections between our corner of the world and Asia. Through this theme, we hope to better connect with our fellow Asianists nearby, and to cultivate a vision of Asian Studies that does not limit 鈥淎sia鈥 to a distant place or an object of inquiry far removed from our everyday lives here in Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region more broadly. During the 2021-22 academic year, we will feature events that speak to these themes, drawing on the wealth of Asian Studies expertise throughout our intermountain region.
