Using Data to Inform Our Decisions: The 2021 Campus Climate Survey Task Force
UW–Madison launched the second iteration of the student Campus Climate Survey in 2021, which sought to understand students’ experiences with and perceptions of campus climate and diversity, including how people of different backgrounds and identities experience life at UW–Madison. Though the 2021 survey data was generally comparable to the 2016 data, the university found some noteworthy differences. In this session, members of the Campus Climate Survey Task Force will give an overview of the 2021 survey findings and comment on them through the lens of their role at the university.
