[Kristie Luke]

At Southeastern, we ask for ethnicity information on the application but have it listed as "optional".

Subject: [Oacrao-l] Collection of Ethnicity Data on Application for Admission

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.
