[laces_wa] [EXTERNAL] - Re: LACES--how to advise students

[Allison Cohen]

That screenshot from Amanda is not LACES, right? That's ctcLink?
There's no option to choose Hispanic/Latino in LACES, correct? Which means,
we are basically telling our students who identify as Latino/Hispanic that
they need to identify as a different race.
Please tell me I'm wrong....
