| Review of Project Charter | Raquel Arata | ||
| Introduction to Available Data | Raquel Arata | Questions to IR: Considering that there are 22 groups, can the DI report be disaggregated by the 22 groups? Can the breakdown of non-white and other pacific islander groups be added to the DI report? How can Afghan and Hmong students be added to separate sub-categories? There are specific needs within each of these groups. Note: Without disaggregated data of all groups, it will be challenging to address the needs of each group. To do: Email DI report to API team. |

| Question | Person(s) Responsible | Notes and Decision(s) | Next Steps |
| What should we name our team? Choices include: Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI), Asian and Pacific Islander American (APIA), Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander (AANHPI), or Asian, Pacific Islander, and Desi American (APIDA). | All |
-Selecting a name that is comprehensive is important. -Considering that there are so many subgroups, we should include an asterisk noting the complexity of the various ethnicities. -Selecting a name that is familiar (API, APA, AAPI); selecting a common name that we all recognize is important; using an unfamiliar name may cause confusion. API-Asian Pacific Islander APA-Asian Pacific Islander American AAPI-Asian American Pacific Islander -APIDA: This acronym may not speak to inclusion considering that Desi means from a specific group. -The team has decided to go with API to keep it consistent with how the various groups are known. |
