Hoang T. Nguyen, a first-year M.A. student in American Studies, Graduate Council member, and President of the Vietnamese Scholars and Students Association, together with his team, recently organized “Writing on the Story of Peace,” an academic-cultural event exploring Vietnam-U.S. history.

Held in late April, the event drew more than 100 attendees, including UW faculty, staff, students, veterans, and community members.

The event was co-sponsored by ASUW, American Studies, the Center for Global Studies, the Albany County America 250th Fund Committee, and the Milward L. Simpson Fund Committee.
