APITA Supports
State Academic Senate
Resolution on Disaggregated Data

As the largest system of higher education in the country with more than 2.1 million students attending 116 colleges, the California Community Colleges serve the most diverse student population of any system of higher education in the state. A commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion enriches the vision of equity outlined in the Vision for Success and fosters an inclusive, anti-racist campus culture.

​

Shout out to APITA Vice Chair Rowena Tomaneng for serving on the DEI Implementation Workgroup. Kudos to APITA members Sue Chan, Debbie Ikeda, Cindi Reiss and Linda Wah for serving on additional work groups to operationalize the DEI Task Force's recommendations.

​

At the APITA Caucus meeting held at the last CCLC Trustees Conference, the caucus formally supported a State Academic Resolution on the need to disaggregate Asian American and Pacific Islander data.
