A brief description of the most recent assessment findings and how the results are used in shaping policy, programs, and initiatives:

Feedback forums provided an opportunity to report on survey results, receive feedback from the campus community, and provided a basis for actions to be taken by various campus stakeholders. Examples include the development of additional programs to further define and understand the dynamics of sexual assault/dating violence as well as to empower each individual to seek resources, and a series of professional development workshops given by human resources that educated supervisors on topics such as conflict management and hiring.
