Oh, I am so glad to see that Hispanic option in the races. I think I might’ve known that was already there. I just got riled up because this has been issue in the past. Thank you for the reminder!

The information is brought over to LACES from CTC Link for colleges (not that it changes anything). This is what the app looks from the CTC portal.

Hello,

Unfortunately, we have always been put in the very uncomfortable and offensive position of having to ask Hispanic students to choose white. I believe there is movement at the federal level to improve the race categories they use. WABERS and LACES must match the federal requirements.



If anyone knows of any alternatives, I would also love to know about them.



Best regards,

Paprika

Hello Deans and Directors

How are you advising students who identify as Latino/Hispanic to answer this question on the LACES intake form when there is no option to choose Latino/Hispanic? Please see the screenshot below. My understanding is that a box in the "race category" MUST be checked in order to ensure "exceptional data quality."

I cannot imagine advising a student who identifies as Hispanic or Latino to choose any of the boxes listed under "race category."



Any ideas?

Thank you

-Allison
