Augusta State University The ASU Center for Immigration Studies was established in the spring of 2006 with a mission to highlight and examine the impact that immigration – both historically and at present – has had upon the State and region. In order to carry out its mission, the Center conducts empirical studies of various immigrant groups. Additionally, the Center sponsors guest lectures, symposia and film screenings which underscore the challenges and opportunities that accompany large-scale immigration to the State, region and country. The Center provides volunteer services to various governmental and non-governmental agencies who work closely with the State’s burgeoning Latino/a immigrant community. As Center Director I visited numerous colleges and universities, civic organizations, and communities of faith throughout the State in an effort to educate the public on immigration related issues. In addition, I wrote newspaper editorials on issues related to immigration which underscore the nation’s historic role in providing refuge and haven for migrants seeking a better life for themselves and their families and the positive contributions made by newcomers to the United States.
