Bill Summary
Expressing support for the recognition of September 22, 2025, to September 28, 2025, as "Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions Week".
AI Summary
This resolution recognizes and supports Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), which are degree-granting postsecondary institutions with at least 10% Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander undergraduate enrollment. The resolution highlights that since 2007, over 280 colleges have been eligible as AANAPISIs, with 208 currently funded, and these institutions play a critical role in higher education by enrolling 46% of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander undergraduate students despite comprising only 7.1% of higher education institutions. The resolution officially recognizes the achievements of these institutions, encourages eligible schools to obtain funding and establish programs serving these student populations, marks the 18th anniversary of AANAPISIs' establishment, and designates September 22-28, 2025, as "Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions Week". By doing so, the resolution calls on people and groups across the United States, including Pacific territories, to observe the week with appropriate activities and programs that demonstrate support for these important educational institutions.
