2024-25, Fifth of Six Meetings

Discussion on Multiracial Identity Reporting - PANDA

• Presentation slides

  • What are the implications of categorizing student race/ethnicity differently from how they self-identify?

  • How might this data (identity vs. federal) influence our understanding of student experiences and in turn, the potential actions taken as a result of these conclusions?

  • How does your office analyze racial/ethnic categories?

  • How can we, as a campus, move toward respecting student identity while acknowledging the need for standardized categories across institutions?
