A Guide to APIDA Orgs on Campus
Submitted by Hannah Sazon Joining the Asian Pacific Islander Desi American (APIDA) community here on campus has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my college years. As an out-of-state student who only knew one person from high school, I wasn’t sure how I was going to make friends on campus.

Below, I’ve put together a brief guide to the APIDA clubs at UD to help you get to know them and find your own place in this welcoming community! Asian…
