Asian Assault Committee
By Susan Marine | February 28, 2000I am writing to correct misinformation provided in the 2/25 article, "Asian Council Creates Assault Committee" written by Ritika Nandkeolyar. In this article, Nandkeolyar paraphrases me as having said that in the early years of collecting demographic statistics, I "defined Asian students as those who were East Asian -- members of the Korean, Japanese and Chinese communities.". This is neither an accurate portrayal of the term "east Asian" nor an accurate portrayal of the way I have collected demographics in this area.
