None
A brief description of how the results of the assessment(s) are used in shaping policy, programs, and initiatives:
The CMU-SES did not include items on diversity, and the 2009 EOY (end of year survey) for undergrads and grads included frequency of interactions (not attitudes) and one item about how diverse they perceive the institution to be. That is just an assessment of their perception of the level of diversity, but not an attitude about diversity and equity.

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
While there are informal mechanisms for assessing attitudes about diversity and equity, and these are abundant, we don’t think they provide an answer that meets the criteria of the question.
