What is Asian American High School Conference?
High School Conference (HSC) is a free, one-day conference held at the University of Michigan that aims to help Asian American (AsAm) high school students explore their identity, gain insight into college life, and meet fellow peers in the AsAm community.
Our theme for this year is “Stories by the Fire” through which we hope to inspire students to be bold in their identity for their communities and themselves. With the support of the University of Michigan’s students and organizations, we will be leading workshops, group discussions, and a panel on topics related to AsAm identity, representation, community, and college life.
