We sincerely appreciate your support. Southeast Asian Archive Fall Quarter Hours1:00-5:00 Monday-Saturdayand by appointment New SEA Faculty at UCIIt is a pleasure to welcome two new faculty members to UCI who will be teaching classes in Southeast Asian American studies and Vietnamese language. Linda Trinh Vo has been appointed an assistant professor of Asian American Studies with a focus on Southeast Asian Americans. She comes to UCI from previous teaching positions at Washington State University and Oberlin College. Her background is in Sociology, and she received her Ph.D. from the University of California, San Diego in 1995. Her publication areas include Vietnamese Americans, Asian American women, ethnographic practices, pan-Asian mobilization, and community studies. Her current projects include a co-edited special issue on Asian American women for Frontiers: A Journal of Women Studies and a book manuscript, Constructing identity , community, and organization: Asian American mobilization in San Diego. Tri C. Tran has been appointed lecturer in the East Asian Languages and Literatures Department and is teaching three classes of Vietnamese during fall quarter. UCI students have been advocating for Vietnamese language classes for ten years. However, this is the first time that Vietnamese language classes are being offered as part of an organized language program at UCI during the regular academic year. Special thanks are due to Chancellor Cicerone, the School of Humanities, the Department of East Asian Languages and Literatures, and the Program in Asian American Studies for making these classes a reality. UCI is not new to Dr. Tran as he received his B.A. in Spanish from UCI in 1994. He also became a member of Phi Beta Kappa the same year. He went on to UCLA to earn a M.A. in 1996 and a Ph.D. in Romance Linguistics and Literature in 1999. Dr. Tran also teaches Vietnamese at Santa Ana College, and has been an instructor in Spanish at various community colleges and in the CSU system. He has published short stories in Vietnamese in the Canadian magazine, Lang Van and has translated works from English to Vietnamese. New Student Assistant: Thanh NguyenPresently, I am a student in the UCLA Graduate School of Education & Information Studies, class of 2000. My B.A. was in American Literature and Culture, also from UCLA. Prior to my immigrating to the U.S. in 1991, I graduated from the Pedagogy University of Saigon with a degree in Vietnamese Literature. In 1998 a book of my poetry was published, Thien Duong Chuong Giay, and some of my poems have been translated into English in the Winter 2000 issue of The Literary Review (Fairleigh Dickinson University). I am a regular contributor to Vietnamese literary magazines, including Hop Luu and Tho. (Editor's note: Howie was featured in a recent Los Angeles Times article, "Artists create a new self-image," April 28, 2000. While at UCI he will be processing archival collections.)SEA Archive Collections ProcessedStudents enrolled in an introductory archives class taught for San Jose University's School of Library and Information Science at CSU Fullerton have processed and created a finding aid for the Joseph Carrier Collection on the Chieâu Hoi Amnesty Program. The collection contains materials pertaining to the Chieu Hoi amnesty program, operated by the Republic of Vietnam from 1963 to 1973, to encourage civilian and military defections from the communist controlled South. It includes transcripts of interviews, interview notes, administrative correspondence, memoranda, data, published and unpublished reports from public and private agencies, including the RAND Corporation, the U.S. and Republic of Vietnam governments, and materials relating to Carrier's study of the defoliation of Vietnam. Howie Phan, UCLA Graduate School of Education & Information Studies intern last spring quarter, processed and produced finding aids for two collections for the SEA Archive. The Paul Tran (Tran Hoang Luc) Collection on Vietnamese American Advocacy Activities contains newspaper and journal articles, correspondence, and documents related to Vietnamese boat people in Hong Kong; and political publications and documents originated by overseas Vietnamese, mostly in the U.S., against the Vietnamese communist regime. The second collection, the Kim Ha Files, includes the manuscript of her book on the experiences of Vietnamese land refugees, Qua con bao du, articles and correspondence relating to the book, its English translation, Stormy escape, and the author. Many thanks to Dr. Debra Hansen, the Archives' class instructor, the students in the Archives class and to Howie Phan for their work in making these collections available for research.
