@gill_thornton , You can create a calculated column as per below DAX , fill free to update condition as per your requirements

 

DAX
CurrentTermFlag =
VAR CurrentDate = TODAY()
RETURN
IF(
CurrentDate >= TermDates[StartDate] && CurrentDate <= TermDates[EndDate],
"Current Term",
"Not Current Term"
)
