ORU does the same.  It is noted as optional.

We ask the question by saying “The following information is voluntary and requested for reporting purposes only in accordance with the 1964 Civil Rights Act as amended. Mark all that apply.”  This gives the option of answering or not.

There has been some recent concern on our campus over the collection of ethnicity data on our application for admission even though it is for information and reporting purposes only.  My question is how many of you ask the ethnicity questions on your application for admission?

Thank you in advance for your responses.
