With change and innovation the driving forces, California's workerscan keep the edge of productivity and California's businessescan keep the edge of creativity and entrepreneurialprowess that they have pioneered. Hopefully, the California community colleges will bean integral and equal partner in preparing the new California workforce. Partnership 2000 representsa dynamic model that can be replicated in all areas and segments of the state and its economy. The goal of Partnership 2000 is to be a catalyst and provide the 'seed' funds for activities that business, industry, labor, government, and educationcan voluntarily implement in its local area. Colleges that bave been provided with 'seed' funds are now writing proposals to "institutionalize" and "spiral out" those activities based on successful pre-planning and planning activities. Whereas, in the past, Partnership 2000 continuedto guide and subsidize each program, now, a new institution will supervise and direct the institutionalized activities. The High Technology Demonstration Project, housedat Los Angeles City College and funded by the Chancellor's Office, CaliforniaCommunity Colleges will include the institutionalization of telecommunications. West Los Angeles College, City College of San Francisco,and San Jose State University are writing proposalsto institutionalize Aviation and Aeronautics activities for Fiscal, 1992. During 1991-1992, Partnership 2000 will be validatingManufacturing Technology issues with another "Issues Forum" and theenergy and environmental activities will be extended into the ResponsiveEnergy Technology Symposium and International Exhibition(RETSIE). 2. 7 Through "Issues Forums"conducted thisyear, the Core Advisory Committee recommendedto refer health occupationconcerns to the

Beginning with vanguard works filmed in Super 8mm, Visual Communications productions have been distinguished by their unerring fidelity to the stories and perspectives of Asian America. As evidenced within this catalog, this policy has continued as Visual Communications’ productions have transitioned from film and video to digital formats. As well, the stories being told through our various offerings reflect the ever-changing landscape of the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities, and introduces us to filmmakers and voices who have come of age in the 22 years since the first edition of this catalog.

  • Sawtelle Japantown Report #1
    The Trajectory of Japanese American Neighborhoods REPORT #1 SPRING 2015 SAWTELLE JAPANTOWN The Trajectory of Japanese American Neighborhoods AUTHORS JENNY HUANG PROJECT COORDINATORS JOANN KWEON PAUL M. ONG JOYCE PARK C. AUJEAN LEE TONY ZHANG UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, LOS ANGELES 1 PREFACE These reports represent Asian American Studies’ commitment to engaged scholarship through teaching and community-oriented research that are mutually beneficial. Community partners are instrumental in identifying research needs, participating in and facilitating data collection, as- sisting in analyzing information, and disseminating findings to inform policy debates and pro- gram development. For community members, we hope that they will gain insights from student research. At the same time, students gain real-world understanding of Asian American issues. The class that sponsored a community project serves as a bridge for students’ academic training and their life after graduation. We hope that this project enables students to acquire and apply research skills and engage in broader social justice movements. This course, “Capstone Community-based Research: Asian American Enclaves and Community Institutions,” connected students to Sawtelle Japantown Association (SJA). The class was offered through UCLA’s Asian American Studies Department. This year’s project examines the factors that contribute to the vitality of ethnic enclaves and community institutions to then provide rec- ommendations to SJA. SJA has been working since 2014 to preserve the cultural and historic as- pects of the Sawtelle area. They are working to mobilize and strengthen community and cultural organizations so that its members have an active, strong, and effective voice in planning their neighborhood’s future. This project emerged from a joint planning effort that started during the summer of 2014.
