A brief description of how the results of the assessment(s) are used in shaping policy, programs, and initiatives:

The 2005 faculty work life survey resulted in Cornell’s establishment of “The ADVANCE Program” with the mission to increase the recruitment, retention, and promotion into leadership positions of women in STEM fields and to institutionalize best practices, policies and programs as they pertain to women faculty. Many activities, including monthly mentoring meetings, most likely led to female faculty reporting a 6% increase in satisfaction in the recent October, 2010 faculty survey.
