    ACA Moment in Action
    It was AMAZING to see so many students show up to support their friends in Music and Chorus at the ACA Pops Concert last Thursday night. It was an incredible show and the icing on the cake was all the cheering from so many different student groups. A big thank you to all the students who turned out for the Pops Concert! Your attendance was a perfect example of an ACA Moment.

    We have all seen reports that frontline workers of color are disproportionately affected by Covid-19, and the Filipino American population is no different. According to National NursesUnited, Filipinos make up 4% of registered nurses in the US and yet they accounted for 26.4% of nurses who died from COVID-19 and related complications. October is Filipino American History Month, and it seems fitting to recognize these frontline workers as heroes. Follow the history of why 1 in 4 health workers in the US are Filipino through photos on CNN.
