Does the ELT support the initiation of a project team focused on creating a cohesive strategy of interventions and programs that (1) are designed to engage students from disproportionately impacted populations to enable their persistence and timely completion of their educational goals; and (2) has the potential to be effectively run at full scale. Greene and Lehmann - Disproportionately Impacted (DI) Project Initiation form discussed

- Some current programs on campus but are small and can’t reach all students
- Want to maintain the current work of those programs but expand
- Implications from IEP along w/college commitment to social justice
- Those currently working with DI populations will be center focus as far as team membership along with representation from those communities
- Level Up a specific example – a start to supporting students from DI populations; one step to larger conversation and larger project; supports 90 students for two weeks in the summer
- Thumbs up for 2019-20
- Next step: draft charter
