Asian Americans are seen as the model minority and not needing any assistance within higher education, given their history of success. Although there is some research that indicates that Asian Americans face a glass ceiling and are underrepresented in leadership positions, little research has been conducted on leadership preparation for Asian Americans, especially in college where many of these skills are typically learned. Examining the experiences of Asian American college student leaders provides valuable knowledge about how these students were able to successfully navigate through their higher education experience and pursue a leadership position.

520 $a Asian Americans are seen as the model minority and not needing any assistance within higher education, given their history of success. Although there is some research that indicates that Asian Americans face a glass ceiling and are underrepresented in leadership positions, little research has been conducted on leadership preparation for Asian Americans, especially in college where many of these skills are typically learned. Examining the experiences of Asian American college student leaders provides valuable knowledge about how these students were able to successfully navigate through their higher education experience and pursue a leadership position.
520 $a This study utilizes qualitative methodology to help understand how Asian American college students experience, interpret, and perceive their race as playing a role in their leadership participation. A semi-structured interview approach was utilized to interview twenty-four Asian American college students who were current leaders within extracurricular organizations at two highly selective public universities in California. Twelve paid university staff members who worked closely with Asian American college students at the same two universities, including faculty, student support services, and administration, were also interviewed to obtain a more informed and multidimensional perspective. The interviews explored the experiences of Asian American student leaders and the institutional factors that Asian Americans perceived as either enabling or inhibiting the pursuit of leadership opportunities.
520 $a The results reported are divided into six distinct categories: entry into leadership, levels of support, campus, being Asian American, model minority stereotype, and Asian American leadership. First, the reasons why students became involved in student organizations, what lead them to pursue leadership positions within those student organizations, and benefits that students saw as a result of their participation and leadership in student organizations are discussed. Next, different levels where students might receive support for their leadership in general and their Asian American leadership are investigated. Then, campus dynamics and being Asian American is explored. Further, students described how the model minority stereotype influenced their lives. Lastly, Asian American leadership is explored, including how Asian Americans have not yet had the chance to become leaders and Asian Americans not being encouraged to become leaders.
