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.
