Results of the 2015 campus climate survey on gender issues developed by the President's Gender Working Group will be reviewed at a campus forum on Thursday, March 17. Faculty, staff and students responded to anonymous surveys that addressed such areas as career opportunities; recruitment and promotions; academics/in the classroom; parental and caretaking support; and harassment, intimidation and discrimination. Participants also had an opportunity to prioritize campus needs related to gender. 

Abigail Wyche, social work department head and member of the group, will lead the presentation at 2 p.m. in the University Center Marquette Room. Refreshments and cookies will be provided. 

The goal of the employee and student surveys was to assess NMU's campus climate with respect to gender so that the working group can share results with the president and recommend related measures/programming that might address issues identified as in need of improvement.
