Who We Are

As Outreach chairs of the Asian Pacific American Coalition at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, four students had a vision of creating a project that would highlight the Asian American community on campus, whose representation always seemed to be overlooked and underappreciated.

Thus, Minority Models was born.

This page will be dedicated to posting photos of your fellow peers as well as their stories, opinions and comments on issues surrounding the Asian American community. We hope to put a new twist to this familiar concept.

Everyone has a different opinion. No two stories are the same. Through Minority Models, our goal is to reverse the perception of the model minority label placed on the Asian American community and celebrate cultural diversity. And of course, showcase the lovely faces of students on campus.
