Diversity Initiative Climate Survey

In the spring of 2010, seeking self-study and improvement, Diversity Initiative completed its first climate survey.  This survey asked students, faculty, staff, and administrators to comment on their perceptions of the programs, practices, and community on campus.  Over 1,200 members of the Washburn University and Washburn Tech campuses responded. 

Information on the results of the 2010 diversity climate survey delivered to the Washburn faculty in April 2, 2010, is available here.

We will begin administering our second climate survey on February 11, 2012.  We ask all members of the Washburn community to respond!  We value your opinion and your assistance in building vibrant and inclusive campuses.
