A brief description of the institution’s methodology for evaluating employee satisfaction and engagement:

The myGVSU survey solicits input from employees and students to learn what they think about the campus climate. The survey reveals what it is like to learn, live, and work at GVSU and to offer ideas that could be instituted campus wide to make GVSU an even better place than it already is. Students, faculty, and staff members voice their opinions, safely and anonymously via an online or paper process.


A brief description of the mechanism(s) by which the institution addresses issues raised by the evaluation (including examples from the previous three years):

GVSU's Campus Climate Implementation Committee (CCIC) has created action plans to address issues raised in the myGVSU survey. The CCIC is moving into an implementation phase to adopt actions to further improve GVSU's climate. GVSU is currently studying whether to adopt an ombuds position. It is also developing measures to address incivility in the workplace and in the classroom.
