Overview
The staff and student page have an Ethnicity drop down menu as many contracted programs and grants ask you to track the diversity of your students and staff.
The default selections in Oases may not be specific enough for your needs and you can change the Ethnic Groups in Set Up.

5. When you are finished making your additions, edits, and removals remember to click the "Save" button in the top right.
