LEAD-ASIA stands for Leadership Education and Development for Asian Students in America. It is a rich, transformative community where eastern values meet western principles and interact to synthesize contemporary and holistic student leaders. We hope to reimagine on-campus living by providing a safe, inclusive space to all who identify as part of the Asian Pacific Islander Desi American community, which includes but is not limited to East Asian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and Pacific Islander identities, as well as multiracial and multiethnic identities.

Membership Benefits
We hope to serve students of Asian descent in their academic, professional, social, and cultural endeavors with the hope that they will embrace the different parts of their identities, feel confident and proud of themselves rather than silently suppress aspects of that identity because it is different from the majority culture.

Resources to cultivate career readiness, share and/or reconnect with Asian culture and heritage, nurturing community to promote self-awareness and a sense of belonging, leadership opportunities, professional workshops, space, and inclusive spaces to socialize or study with each other, and build fulfilling and lasting college experience.
