    1. We don't understand the use cases where this is used and need that information before we suggest removing it, changing the definition, or whether there needs to be many more attributes defined. One possible use case (needs to be validated to see if it's real) relates to financial aid grants/scholarships that are targeted to gender minorities. Note that some languages will vary depending on the gender of the person being addressed. The SEB has consensus that change needs to happen; what the change needs to be will depend on real use cases. Current thinking is that we will change the definition rather than removing the attribute entirely.
    2. Of interest: ACAMP session on gender and pronouns
      •  Heather Flanaganto reach out to SCHAC deployers (where known) to ask if/how they are using schacGender. 
      •  Benjamin Oshrin to reach out to the InCommon Software Integration Working Group to see if any campuses are exploring gender attribute use cases as well
