LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Dear Editor,

Beginning on Feb. 3, Drake University students, faculty and staff have the opportunity to share their experiences on our campus through our climate assessment. This is not another survey. Rather, it is a vital assessment designed to identify the ways in which individuals and groups experience membership in the campus community. With the assessment results, we will craft a strategic plan to make our campus more inclusive and welcoming for all. By sharing your unique story, you truly are making a difference in the future of our university.
Each individual on this campus has a unique Drake experience, and we can’t achieve a full understanding of our campus climate without the voices of our fellow students, faculty and staff. We call upon each and every one of you to take the confidential, 15-30 minute survey. The survey can be found at https://rankinsurveys3.com/drake

All the best,
Jackie Heymann and Nadia Valentine
Signed on behalf of the Strategic Diversity Action Team
