A brief description of the assessment process and the framework, scorecard(s) and/or tool(s) used:
The primary purpose of the Skyfactor Campus Climate, Safety, and Sexual Assault Assessment is to provide SDSU with information to inform policies, programs, and practices that enhance the campus environment.
This assessment provides campus constituents an opportunity to voice their experiences and perceptions of the campus environment. Specifically, it serves as a conduit for providing feedback to help direct university initiatives. This information will be used to develop strategic priorities related to the campus environment and all who interact with the campus community including all students, future students, alumni, visitors, faculty, employees, and all stakeholders.
The Skyfactor Campus Climate Survey addresses important issues such as sexual assault, campus response to incidents, student perceptions and interactions, and opportunities for student learning. At the same time, it maintains important topic areas from the previous assessment, such as peer relationships, co-curricular environment, and campus accessibility.
The Office of Diversity, Inclusion, Equity, and Access as the opportunity to give recommendations for what questions to include.
