This qualitative study recorded the conflicting perceptions which illustrate the difference between Asian American experiences and those of white Americans. The significant differences found were differentiation based on physiognomy, stereotyping based on generalizations of ""model minority,"" and racism from negative perceptions of ""those Orientals.""" "But Asian American students also referred to a unique and beneficial position from American cultural influence combined with their Asian heritage. They acknowledged an ""ability to see both sides $\...$ the benefit of knowing two cultures.""" This study recorded accounts which describe the experiences of these situations in the voices of Chinese American and Japanese American university students. These descriptions produce a realistic picture of the current Asian American experience and provide an experiential expression through the interview transcripts.
