Ji Su Kang describes herself as a 1.5 -- an immigrant who moves to a new country as a child. Immigration is not as binary as being legal or illegal, and Ji Su talks of her experiences conversing with lawyers and filling out work permits for her family at a very young age and addresses the need to include 1.5s in the dialogue of improving the immigration process in America.
Ji Su Kang is a fourth-year in the college at the University of Chicago majoring in the interdisciplinary program History, Philosophy, and Social Studies of Science and Medicine (HIPS), and minoring in both Human Rights and Music.
Ji Su is a member of the Rockefeller Chapel Choir and the Vocal Studies program, as well as President of Motet Choir. She also volunteers at the non-profit organization ENoK (Emancipate North Koreans), teaching English to North Korean refugees preparing for post-secondary education. In her free time, Ji Su works as a translator and interpreter for Korean immigrants and various non-profit organizations.
Ji Su’s life as a 1.5 generation immigrant has made her passionate about empowering young, lower-class immigrants. She wishes to become a spokesperson for their great strength and limitless potential.
