Introduction
The Minority Recruitment and Retention Subcommittee of the Strategic Enrollment Management Team is comprised of interested and committed individuals representing the divisions of Academic Affairs as well as Student Affairs and Enrollment Management. The Subcommittee worked for many months to create a plan to be included as part of the university’s overall Strategic Enrollment Management Plan and one of the initiatives of the subcommittee was a survey of the racial climate at UMKC. It was believed this was an important first step in eventually creating the kind of university that would attract, retain and graduate a higher number of students of color which is a clearly stated goal of the university. Further, the previous survey was conducted in 1999 and all agreed that UMKC had changed significantly in that period of time, making it necessary to survey students again.
