“David did a great job engaging the crowd. You can tell it was authentic and David meant what he said. It was my favorite lecture from the Diversity Lecture Series!”
Stanley Duncan
David Lee, who is the Advancement Director at Lighthouse Immigrant Advocates and a Hope College graduate, presented the college’s 2024 Asian Heritage Lecture on Tuesday, April 9 in the Maas Center Auditorium.
Featuring the theme “Hope in the Middle: Diversity and Inclusion in the Eyes of a 2000s Alumnus,” this year’s lecture reflected on Lee’s identity as a Korean-American immigrant with deep ties to the Reformed Church in America; how those ties informed his faith; and foundational experiences while he was enrolled at Hope from 2004 to 2009.
