Mount Royal has also added custom questions to the Canadian University Survey Consortium (CUSC) surveys for students asking to what extent they agree with the statement "MRU is a respectful and inclusive place for someone like me". This had been in surveys since Winter 2016.
In 2015, the Office of Diversity and Human Rights Services reached out to employees and students on behalf of the Diversity and Meaningful Inclusion Working Group to get feedback regarding Access, Climate, Learning, and Capacity.
