Representing the National Resource Center [NRC] for Southeast Asian Studies was Teri Skillman (Associate Director), Joan Pan (Associate Director, NRC for East Asia), Lt. Governor Sylvia Luke, Mark Levin (Director, NRC for East Asia), and Foley Pfalzgraf (Outreach Director, NRC for Pacific Island Studies).
