Ich bin Referentin für Studienreform an der Europa-Universität Viadrina in Frankfurt (Oder) und arbeite an einem Reformkonzept für Studium und Lehre, in dem die Perspektive der Studierenden eine besondere Rolle spielt. Das Thema der studentischen Partizipation liegt mir dabei besonders am Herzen, weil es zu einem demokratieförderlichen Miteinander in und außerhalb der Universität beitragen kann. Außerdem bin ich als assoziierte Forscherin am Weizenbaum Institut tätig.

Susie Lan Cassel is a Professor of Literature and Writing Studies at California State University, San Marcos where she also served as the inaugural Coordinator of the Ethnic Studies Program in 2001. Over her 29-year tenure at the University, she has earned numerous accolades, including the Brakebill Distinguished Professor Award (the top award for faculty), as well as two President’s awards, one for scholarship and the other for inclusive excellence. Her debut book, The Chinese in America: A History from Gold Mountain to the New Millennium, was nominated for the Association of Asian American Studies book award in history. Prof. Cassel’s scholarly contributions also include articles in notable journals, such as Journal of Asian American Studies, Frontiers: A Journal of Women’s Studies, Reflections: On Community-Based Writing Instruction, and the MLA’s Profession. She has dedicated the last two decades to editing the rare diary of a Cantonese immigrant, Ah Quin, who arrived in San Francisco in 1870. That work has expanded into an “Ah Quin trilogy” that, in addition to a scholarly edition of the eleven-volume diary, now includes historical biographies of Ah Quin and his wife, Ah Sue, set against the backdrop of the Chinese Exclusion Era. This paper stems from her work on Ah Sue and the history of Chinese women in America. Her recent research on San Diego’s Chinese Missions features Ah Quin and can be found in the Journal of San Diego History. 69:1 (Fall/Winter 2023), 1-51.

Research Project: The Transformation of Asian and Asian American Stereotypes and Representations in the United States

Conducted media content analysis to investigate how dominant narratives about Asians and Asian Americans have been constructed to serve shifting national interests and maintain racial hierarchies.
Analyzed a diverse range of sources, including magazine articles like “How to Tell Japs from the Chinese,” political cartoon “The Honorable Fifth Column,” and COVID-19 anti-Asian news reports.
Argued that while modes of expression evolve, the underlying hegemonic frameworks of stereotype persist, demonstrating the shift from overt to subtle forms of representation in the modern era.
This research, which drew upon frameworks of racial formation and stereotype theory, culminated in a 30 pages paper and a departmental presentation.

Victoria Price is the founder of Organize Design Create (ODC) and the creator behind @intentionallyvee_, where she teaches real, repeatable systems that help single parents run their households without burning out. A single mother of five, Victoria built her expertise the only way she knows how — out of necessity.

After becoming a solo parent in 2019, she developed the frameworks she now teaches: meal systems, routines, screen time boundaries, and the kind of household infrastructure that keeps a family of six running when there's one adult at the helm. Her content series, "Nobody's Coming, Save Yourself" and "Raising Them Kids," has resonated with hundreds of thousands of parents navigating the same reality.

With 15+ years of professional experience spanning nonprofit, real estate, insurance, and communications — and systems work with 200+ organizations since 2019 — Victoria brings operational precision to a space that's usually ruled by Pinterest aesthetics. She's proof that the systems you build to survive can become the systems you teach to change lives.
