The Forum on Education Abroad, of which ASAPI is a reciprocal member, has issued a response to the executive order banning travelers from seven Muslim-majority nations. The Forum states that it "is strongly against President Trump’s actions, which run counter to the international education values that we work so hard to achieve." A running list of University and Higher Education Association responses can also be found at the International Higher Education Consulting Blog.

A new Executive Committee was elected and the dedicated service of outgoing Co-Chair Karl Dowling was acknowledged. Congratulations to the newly elected members of the ASAPI Executive Committee.
