Lee Pao Xiong just was 8 years old when the U.S. withdrew from the Vietnam War, saying many families were split up during the evacuations, including his own.

After consulting with Concordia University administrators, and with hesitation, we have decided to postpone the 8th International Conference on Hmong Studies until further notice.

Since we will have people traveling to the conference from throughout the world, it would be best to be proactive versus reactive in this atmosphere of fear regarding the Corona Virus. We have also seen a reduction in the number of people registering for the conference thus far.

We apologize for this inconvenience, especially for those who have already made your travel plans. If you registered for the conference already, we will work with the finance office to refund your registration fee or we can hold on to it until we reschedule the conference. Just let me know how you want to handle it.

Thank you for your understanding. If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.
