"The report was used to get our feet wet and gather data," he said. "We hope to use it to improve the situation by getting people talking about the problems." Trujillo described some topics that will be addressed in the committee's recommendations. Increasing Webbased communication and furthering relationships with community colleges were on the top of his list. "A lot of ethnic students attend community colleges," he said. "Unfortunately, many of them do not make the jump to the university." He also noted problems with gathering data, especially in regard to students and faculty choosing the "other" option when asked to give an ethnicity. He said that students from mixed ethnicities or ethnicities not listed—such as Middle Eastern—are not represented in studies. Trujillo said that work is needed to get the word out about scholarships and student programs intended solely for ethnic students. He commended Associated Students of the University of Utah President Ali Hasnain for his effort in raising communication in these areas. "It all involves communication. We need more communication between the university, the public, the community colleges and the public schools," he said. "The more awareness, the better the programs and the more support." ™ DAILY UTAH CHRONICLE ed, there is money hi escrow that would allow the state to purchase the house.
