A brief description of how and when the cultural assessment(s) were developed and/or adopted:
We've conducted two assessments to explore attitudes and behaviors of the students, staff, and faculty on our campus by reviewing data collected in an anonymous survey. The participants were engaged via their hope.edu email addresses to participate and there was not any type of treatments, interventions, or deception in this survey and it was 100% voluntary. The goal is to help us better understand: What drives individual behavior change in the area of sustainability for the Hope College community? and encourage sustainable behaviors.
The first assessment was in the summer of 2018 and was sent to students, faculty, and staff. The second assessment was in the fall of 2019 and was sent to a randomly selected group of 800 students (200 freshmen, 200 sophomores, 200 juniors, and 200 seniors).
