A brief description of the assessment(s):
The SJSU Office of Institutional Research conducts a Campus Climate Survey and the intent is to assess sense of community and respect for diversity among all members of the campus. The survey is administered to students, faculty and staff. The survey administered to students assesses student perceptions of the campus climate, the degree of sensitivity on campus regarding racial/ethnic, gender, disability and other issues, the experiences of diversity issues within the classroom and larger learning environment, and awareness of procedures to report discriminatory behaviors. The anonymous survey also collects detailed demographic information. The survey for faculty/staff contains questions dealing with racial/ethnic relations, the apparent fairness of professors and staff, and opinions regarding SJSUs diversity policies.
