Whether the United States can adequately respond to the demands of the global economy and maintain its standing as a global leader is inextricably tied to its ability to increase educational opportunities for all Americans. Professor Teranishi will discuss his work with the National Commission on AAPI Research in Education (CARE), including a recently released study of the demography of AAPI students and their educational trajectories. This work has been influential to federal, state, and institutional policy by elevating awareness about the unique needs, challenges, and experiences of AAPI students, particularly with regard to the wide range of social and institutional contexts in which they pursue their educational aspirations.
