    • For example, in 1999, the influential College Board released a report, Reaching the top: A report of the National Task Force on Minority High Achievement, that neglected to examine any disaggregated data for Asian/Pacific Islander Americans (APIAs). As a result, the report neglected to recommend that special efforts be targeted to any APIA group. The report is available online at http://www.collegeboard.com/research/abstract/0,1273,3876,00.html. Spurred to action by this report, in May 2001, the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (CAPAC), under the leadership of Congressman Robert Underwood of Guam, collaborated with SEARAC to gather community scholars together for a "Summit on the Status of Pacific Islander and Southeast Asian-Americans in Higher Education." Information from the summit and other related materials are available online at http://www.searac.org/highedsummit.html.

    • Survivors of the Khmer Rouge regime and people who were imprisoned in reeducation camps (such as recent arrivals from Vietnam under the Resettlement Opportunities for Vietnamese Refugees Program) are particularly likely to suffer from trauma-related illnesses, which are appropriately treated by only a small number of clinicians operating in a few areas. These illnesses, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and head injury, impair their sufferers' abilities to relate intimately with others, take on new life challenges, and learn new skills. See note 5, Um, p. 34.

    • Acknowledging the importance of curricula that address the particular linguistic, cultural, and historical characteristics of student populations, AAPIP recommended that fellow grant makers "Promote research, development, and staff training in the use of multicultural curricula that portray the history and culture of Asian Pacific Americans, and of anti-racism curricula that support direct and honest dialogue among students."

    • Personal communication with Dr. Seree Weroha, Education Consultant, Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, in April 2002. Dr. Weroha noted that one reason for the shortage of Southeast Asian American teachers is that not enough Southeast Asian American professionals take the initiative to lead and recruit Southeast Asian Americans who may want to become teachers.
