March 1st Commemoration and ERI Open House

ALL DAY MONDAY: Wear Black With The Commemorative Pin.
AT 5:30: Attend the East Rock Institute Open House & Eat Korean Food
.


March 1st Commemoration
On March 1st 1919, the Korean Independence movement was born. Korean nationalists presented a formal declaration of independence to the Japanese colonial government and protests broke out all across the country. To commemorate the heroic acts and sacrifices of the over 7000 individuals who gave their lives and 15000 more who were injured that day, KASY is distributing commemorative pins to its members and friends to be worn with black clothes on Monday.

East Rock Institute Open House
That afternoon we will be having an Open House at the East Rock Institute, this coming Monday at 5:30PM. ERI is a nonprofit research and educational organization dedicated to the enhancement and deepening of cultural understanding between Eastern and Western societies through innovative approaches to research and teaching. It was founded by the late Dr. Kwang Lim Koh, husband of the current chair of the organization, Dr. Hesung Koh, and father of Dr. Harold Koh, Obama's legal advisor and Dr. Howard Koh, US Assis. Secretary of Health.

ERI is looking for Yale students interested in East Asian Studies to volunteer and intern for different ongoing projects. It is an opportunity to network with many alumni and learn about Korean/Korean-American culture. Come out to meet people, learn about the opportunities at ERI, and hear a little about the history of KASY. Also, delicious Korean food will be provided. Please RSVP to sunhyoung.park@yale.edu.
