Commitment to Assessment // Your institution partnered with EBI to participate in the EBI Campus-wide Student Climate/Diversity Assessment. Assessment is a process to collect information to better understand the perceptions of your institution’s effectiveness from the viewpoint of your campus constituents. Assessment information answers important questions such as “How effective is our program?” or “Where should we focus resources to improve?” Focusing only on your institution’s performance can be limiting; questions such as “Is improvement possible?” are difficult to answer without benchmarking information. Benchmarking, a key feature in this project, provides comparisons between your institution and others (external benchmarking), between successive years (longitudinal benchmarking), and between groups (internal benchmarking). Benchmarking allows you to identify comparative strengths and weaknesses. Closing the Assessment Loop // Successful assessment projects combine data collection, analysis, action planning, and implementation of actions. Unfortunately, most assessment projects end after studying the assessment results without creating and implementing actions for improvement. We recommend the following steps: CONDUCT ASSESSMENT // Using a survey instrument that reliably measures areas important to your profession is a critical first step. ANALYZE INFORMATION // Carefully review the analysis (both written and online) to understand issues facing your program and where your program should focus its attention. IMPLEMENT ACTION PLAN // Assign a person(s) to each action and hold them accountable for their area of responsibility. CREATE ACTION PLAN // Develop an Action Plan for program improvement based on these results. 2011-12 EBI Campus-wide Student Climate/Diversity Assessment ©2012 EBI MAP-Works, LLC. Survey report may not be reproduced without permission 1 THE POWER OF ASSESSMENT AND BENCHMARKING EBI provides two reporting platforms for your convenience. EBI’s Written Report // EBI’s written report is segmented into four major areas: • Confidentiality Statement: (Located on the first page of this written report.) All results are confidential and may be reproduced and utilized only for continuous improvement purposes on your campus. • Assessment Summary: This section contains supplemental information to assist you in understanding the results such as a glossary of terms, list of survey questions and factors, description of the statistical analysis used, external benchmarking groups, and survey response rates. • Executive Summary: EBI recommends you begin your review of the results with this section. All the major components are pulled together to give an excellent overview of your institution’s current performance, external benchmarking comparisons, longitudinal trends, and areas on which to focus resources for improvement. Be sure to identify individual factors key to institutional improvement and any populations (e.g., gender, race) with specific issues in order to target actions as necessary. • Individual Factor Analysis: Once key factors are identified, explore them in-depth to better understand their current and past performance. In addition, detailed information of the factor’s scaled questions is reported. Actions should be targeted towards scaled questions which are more tangible and directly actionable. EBI’s Online Reports // If you would like to delve deeper into your assessment information, EBI’s Online Reports provides additional information (e.g., population characteristics) and interactive tools (e.g., filtering and cross-tabs) to enrich your understanding of the results. Summary // Assessment and benchmarking helps focus your time and financial resources for greatest impact and moves your institution from a debate about what is wrong to a discussion of possible solutions. Closing the assessment loop by creating and implementing improvement actions guarantees forward progress. 2011-12 EBI Campus-wide Student Climate/Diversity Assessment ©2012 EBI MAP-Works, LLC.

Survey report may not be reproduced without permission GLOSSARY OF TERMS Below is a compilation of terms used in this report. % Total // Relative size of the respondent population. All Institution Mean // Mean of the aggregated results of all participating institutions. Carnegie Class Mean // Mean of the aggregated results of the institutions in your Carnegie Classification. If the number of institutions in the class is two or fewer, the results will not be reported to protect anonymity. Categorical Questions // Categorical questions are closed-ended questions that ask the respondent to choose an answer(s) that best represent their situation. Typical categorical questions are age, gender, and class standing Contribution // The “contribution to the variance” as explained through the regression analysis. Essentially, this refers to the amount each predictor contributes to the overall variance. The larger the contribution, the larger the impact the factor has on the dependent factor. Factor // A group of statistically-related questions which describe a broad concept more completely than just a single question. Goal // The goal value, set by EBI, is a value of 5.50 on a 7-point scale or a value of 75% on the performance scale. Different performance indicators are given based on its relationship with the goal. indicates that the goal was met. indicates the goal is within reach. indicates the performance is well below goal. Mean // The average (the sum of the values divided by the number of respondents) of the item. Mean Range // The difference between the minimum mean (Min) and maximum mean (Max) across populations provides a range of means which gives a measure of the variation of the data. N // Number of respondents to that item. Negative Correlation (NEG) // The relationship between an independent factor and the dependent factor where the factors move in opposite directions. In other words if the factor’s mean decreases, then we would expect the mean of the overall performance factor to increase. Non-Factor Questions // Scaled questions that are relevant but not statistically related to a factor. Results of these questions are reported individually. Not a Predictor (NP) // A factor which does not contribute to the variance thus is not a predictor of the dependent variable. Because this factor is not a predictor, changes to its performance will not impact the dependent factor. Not Reported (NR) // In order to protect participant anonymity, EBI will not report population data when the number in that population is five or fewer. In order to protect institutional anonymity, EBI will not report performance values for the Carnegie Class if the number of institutions in the class is two or fewer. Performance // Mean scaled from 0-100%. The translation is: “1” on the 7-point scale equates with 0% performance, “4” equates to 50% performance, and “7” equates to 100% performance. Predictor // Predictor status of the factor as calculated from the regression analysis. The strongest predictor is labeled as “1st”, the second strongest is “2nd”, and so forth. We label factors that do not contribute to the variance as “NP” (non-predictor). Rank // Sorting the institutions from highest performance to lowest performance, your institution’s rank is determined. Note, your institution’s data is included when we calculate your institution’s ranking within that comparison group (e.g., your institution’s Select 6 rank is out of 7 institutions since your institution is included in the rank). Response Rate // The number of participants who completed the assessment divided by the total number of participants attempted to survey. 2011-12 EBI Campus-wide Student Climate/Diversity Assessment ©2012 EBI MAP-Works, LLC. Survey report may not be reproduced without permission Survey Summary // 4 GLOSSARY OF TERMS Scaled Questions // These survey questions rely on a 1-to-7 Likert scale with "1" indicating either strong disagreement or being very dissatisfied and "7" indicating either strong agreement or being very satisfied. This type of question is designed to gather perceptions of the participants across a variety of content areas. Select 6 Mean // Mean of the aggregated results of the Select 6 institutions. Standard Deviation // The measure of the variation in response values within that item. Small standard deviations indicate consistency among respondents. In these cases, any intervention taken can be the same for all populations since respondents are responding similarly. Large standard deviations indicate wide variability among respondents. A deeper understanding of which populations are creating this variability is necessary before an intervention can begin. May be abbreviated as Std Dev in reporting. Statistical Significance (Stat Sig) // The indication of a statistical difference in means. Statistical testing is conducted between your institution’s results and the aggregate of your external benchmarking institutions to determine if differences in the means are statistically significant. indicates your institution performed statistically higher than the external benchmarking group; indicates no statistical difference; and indicates your institution performed statistically lower than the external benchmarking group. We also conduct statistical testing between populations and between the current year’s data and prior years’ data. 2011-12 EBI Campus-wide Student Climate/Diversity Assessment ©2012 EBI MAP-Works, LLC.

Survey report may not be reproduced without permission Survey Summary // 9 FACTORS Factors, also called constructs, are groupings of related scaled questions. EBI utilizes factors for two important reasons: • Reduces complexity: The number of questions in this assessment is large making analysis based solely on survey questions complex and unwieldy. The number of factors is significantly smaller, bundling the details and reducing the complexity of analysis; • Strengthen regression: The focal point of EBI’s analysis, Recommendations for Improvement (based on a multi-variant linear regression), is weakened if too many variables are used. Factors, a significantly shorter set of variables, strengthen the regression analysis. Factor Analysis // Factor analysis is a statistical technique used to derive factors. The basic assumption of factor analysis is that underlying dimensions, or factors, can be used to explain more complex phenomena. In measuring perceptions, the object is to combine several questions that, in concert, capture the notion for a particular topic, such as “Facilities”. Factor Reliability // Once it has been determined that a set of scaled questions do share a relationship and therefore constitute a factor, there is an additional (and necessary) statistical test to assess the psychometric soundness of the factor. We rely on Cronbach’s Alpha to determine the internal consistency or reliability of any factor. A Cronbach’s alpha of zero would mean that there is no internal consistency at all, i.e., subjects are likely to respond with any value on any of the questions in a factor with no discernible pattern. An alpha of 1 would mean that every subject answered every question comprising the factor consistently. This is a highly unlikely event. An alpha of .5 is considered acceptable; an alpha of .7 good; alphas in the .8 to .9 range are exceptional. Below is a list of this assessment’s factors and the corresponding Reliability (Chronbach’s Alpha). FACTOR NAME QUESTION NUMBERS RELIABILITY FACTOR 1 // Prior Experience with Diversity: Race/Ethnicity 22, 27, 32 0.82 FACTOR 2 // Prior Experience with Diversity: Gender 23, 28, 33 0.50 FACTOR 3 // Prior Experience with Diversity: Religious Identification 24, 29, 34 0.82 FACTOR 4 // Prior Experience with Diversity: Political/Social Ideology 25, 30, 35 0.76 FACTOR 5 // Prior Experience with Diversity: Financial Standing 26, 31, 36 0.73 FACTOR 6 // Academic Achievement and Personal Development 37-42 0.87 FACTOR 7 // Peer Relationships 43-46 0.92 FACTOR 8 // Diversity Programs and Policies: Special Consideration for Minorities 47-50 0.93 FACTOR 9 // Diversity Programs and Policies: Student Received Special Consideration 51-54 0.90 FACTOR 10 // Camaraderie Among Racial/Ethnic Groups 62-65 0.76 FACTOR 11 // Classroom Environment: Inclusive Environment 66-70 0.81 FACTOR 12 // Classroom Environment: Value of Contributions 73-79 0.94 FACTOR 13 // Classroom Environment: Represent Others 80-86 0.93 FACTOR 14 // Equal Treatment 87-94 0.95 FACTOR 15 // Inter-Group Relations 95-102 0.94 FACTOR 16 // Expressions of Insensitivity and Prejudice: Faculty and Staff 103-110 0.95 FACTOR 17 // Expressions of Insensitivity and Prejudice: Students 111-118 0.94 FACTOR 18 // Diversity Experiences Impacted: Learning and Development 119-127 0.96 FACTOR 19 // Diversity Experiences Impacted: Ability to Work Effectively with Others 128-135 0.97 FACTOR 20 // Diversity Experiences Impacted: Attitudes of Differing Populations 136-143 0.96 FACTOR 21 // Disabled Students: Accessibility of Campus Resources 146-155 0.95 FACTOR 22 // Disabled Students: Physical Accessibility to Campus Facilities 157-168 0.98 FACTOR 23 // Overall Evaluation 169-174 0.90 2011-12 EBI Campus-wide Student Climate/Diversity Assessment ©2012 EBI MAP-Works, LLC. Survey report may not be reproduced without permission Survey Summary // 10 STATISTICAL ANALYSIS EBI is dedicated to providing relevant statistical analysis which removes the guesswork from the reader. Making decisions on assessment information without fully understanding if the results are statistical, could lead to decisions with unintended consequences. In this report, we provide results from regression analysis and statistical testing of means. Regression Analysis (Identifying Predictors) // A correlation establishes the relationship between two variables. Regression analysis, by contrast, allows us to determine the relationship between an assment’s dependent factor (in this assessment, Overall Evaluation of Institution) and multiple independent factors (e.g., facilities, environment, etc.). If we suspect, for example, that Overall Evaluation of Institution is related to a set of independent factors, we could simultaneously assess the extent to which all of these independent factors predict Overall Evaluation of Institution. Beyond that, we can determine the exact weights for each of the independent factors, which allows us to identify which of the independent factors is most important, which is second, and so forth. We can further determine how much each independent factor increases our ability to predict Overall Evaluation of Institution. The first step in regression analysis is to identify which of the independent factors is the best predictor of Overall Evaluation of Institution. Next, the analysis takes into account (controls for) the effect of the first predictor and then determines the second best predictor. This is an iterative process, which controls for all prior factors, then identifies the next predictor (e.g., the 3rd most important, 4th most important and so on). Examining the output of this process allows us to identify the most important predictors among the dependent factors, those with more modest explanatory power, and finally those factors that contribute nothing to our understanding of the Overall Evaluation of Institution. We should note that while the factors in this latter category have no explanatory power, in a practical sense, they contribute greatly to our decision-making ability. Knowing what is not related to -- or predictive of -- Overall Evaluation of Institution can be a valuable insight. Presumably, one would not allocate scarce resources to improve elements that are not related to Overall Evaluation of Institution. Conversely, if we know the best predictors of Overall Evaluation of Institution, investment in those elements would pay high dividends. In reporting results of regression analysis, we discuss the “contribution to the variance”. Essentially, this refers to how well we can explain a certain outcome (improving Overall Evaluation of Institution) by using the factors. The higher the contribution, the stronger our conclusions about how well the factors we have identified help us understand what predicts a given outcome (in this case, improving Overall Evaluation of Institution). Statistical Testing of Means (T-Test) // The t-test determines whether the means of two data sets are statistically different from each other. The result of the t-test is a p-value that indicates how likely those results could happen by chance. A difference is identified as “significant” if the probability that the result could have occurred merely due to chance is less than 5%. All differences reported are significant at the p < 0.05 levels or better. Many are significant at the p < 0.01 (less than 1% of the results could have occurred due to chance) or p < 0.001 (less than 0.1% of the results could have occurred due to chance) level. Statistical testing is conducted between your institution’s results and the aggregate of your external benchmarking institutions (Select 6 institutions, Carnegie Class institutions, and all participating institutions). We also conduct statistical testing between populations and between subsequent years. In this report, we indicate if the test was statistical to p < 0.05 but do not provide individual p-values; p-values can be found in EBI’s Online Reporting. 2011-12 EBI Campus-wide Student Climate/Diversity Assessment ©2012 EBI MAP-Works, LLC. Survey report may not be reproduced without permission Survey Summary // 11 EXTERNAL BENCHMARKING Benchmarking is the process of comparing your institution's performance against other institutions. National benchmarking assessments allow standards to be set and, through those standards, your institution can calibrate its effectiveness. Throughout this report (and EBI's Online Reporting), you will find comparisons of your institution's results against those of your external benchmarking institutions (Select 6 institutions, Carnegie Class institutions, and all participating institutions). As you review these results, note the areas where your institution’s outperforms your external benchmarks; these are areas to celebrate! The opposite may also be true; you may find areas where your institution underperforms your external benchmarks. This indicates that others may have a better approach or better implementation and improvement is possible. Select 6 Institutions // A very important aspect of this benchmarking assessment is the comparison of your institution's results against four to six peer or aspirant institutions (regardless of the number of institutions selected, EBI refers to this group as "Select 6"). In this report, we provide the aggregated information from these institutions. If you want to view an individual Select 6 institutional performance, please access EBI’s Online Reports; however to protect anonymity, institutional names are not linked to results. Your Select 6 institutions are: NOTE: Your institution was allowed to choose from institutions who participated in 2009, 2010, 2011 or 2012; the data collection year is noted beside the institutions name. YOUR SELECT 6 INSTITUTIONS Dominican University of California (2012) Henderson State University (2012) Indiana University-Purdue University (Fort Wayne) (2012) Northwest Missouri State University (2012) Truman State University (2012) Wingate University (2012) Carnegie Classification Institutions // The institutions in your Carnegie Class compose the second external benchmarking group. The Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education is a framework for classifying, or grouping, colleges and universities in the United States. The primary purpose of the framework is for educational research and analysis, where it is often important to identify groups of roughly comparable institutions. The classification includes all accredited, degree-granting colleges and universities in the United States that are represented in the National Center for Education Statistics Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). For this assessment, EBI used the 2010 Basic Carnegie Classifications to determine your institution’s classification. All institutions outside the United States are combined into an “International” Carnegie Class. For a complete list of the institutions in your Carnegie Class, please refer to EBI's Online Reports. YOUR CARNEGIE CLASSIFICATION Master's Colleges and Universities (small to medium programs) Generally includes institutions that awarded at least 50 master's degrees and fewer than 20 doctoral degrees during the update year (with occasional exceptions). Excludes Special Focus Institutions and Tribal Colleges. All Institutions // The third external benchmark is the combination of all participating institutions. This provides a national norm or national standard. For a complete list of all participating institutions, please access EBI’s Online Reports. 2011-12 EBI Campus-wide Student Climate/Diversity Assessment // Ramapo College of New Jersey ©2012 EBI MAP-Works, LLC. Survey report may not be reproduced without permission Survey Summary // 12 SURVEY RESPONSE RATES Survey response rate (also known as completion rate or return rate) refers to the percentage of the surveyed population who responded to the survey. It is calculated by dividing the number of survey participants by the number of people in the sample. For example: if 1,000 surveys were attempted and 257 were completed, then the response rate would be 25.7%.

Survey report may not be reproduced without permission Lower Equal Higher Executive Summary // 8 INDICATOR // OVERALL EVALUATION SUMMARY CURRENT PERFORMANCE EXTERNAL BENCHMARKING RECOMMENDATIONS LONGITUDINAL TRENDS The final piece of the analysis is Longitudinal Trends which supports continuous improvement. The term “continuous improvement” means a never-ending effort to improve programs and processes through several incremental improvements rather than one overwhelming innovation. The term “continuous assessment” means conducting assessment at regular intervals (EBI recommends annual assessment); continuous assessment informs continuous improvement. Longitudinal trends analysis, an artifact of continuous assessment, is the key to evaluating your institution’s continuous improvement efforts. Understanding trends is necessary to determine whether the actions conducted resulted in a successful outcome. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actions conducted on the top predictors and make adjustments. Below is the longitudinal trend for the indicator and top predictors for the most recent iterations of this assessment. If your institution did not designates years where your institution participate continuously during these iterations, EBI extrapolated between successive iterations. A performs statistically higher than the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that are statistically equal to the current year.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Peer Relationships, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

The first analysis to examine is the current performance of the factor. This information, coupled with understanding of individual population perceptions, external benchmarks, longitudinal trends, individual scaled question performance, and other institutional information or assessment is invaluable to constructing an effective Action Plan for improvement.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Camaraderie Among Racial/Ethnic Groups, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Classroom Environment: Represent Others, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Equal Treatment, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Inter-Group Relations, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Expressions of Insensitivity and Prejudice: Faculty and Staff, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actions conducted and make adjustments. If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participate designates years where your institution performs statistically higher than the continuously, EBI extrapolated between successive iterations. A current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that are statistically equal to the current year.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Expressions of Insensitivity and Prejudice: Students, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Diversity Experiences Impacted: Learning and Development, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Diversity Experiences Impacted: Ability to Work Effectively with Others, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Diversity Experiences Impacted: Attitudes of Differing Populations, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Disabled Students: Accessibility of Campus Resources, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Disabled Students: Physical Accessibility to Campus Facilities, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports.

EBI provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Overall Evaluation, in this section of reports. You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below a desired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., current performance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which are more tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding; additional information can be found in EBI’s Online Reports. FACTOR COMPOSITION Overall Evaluation // To what degree do you agree with the following statements: Q169 // Overall, I am satisfied with my experience at this college/university. Q170 // I feel as though I belong to this campus community. Q171 // The overall quality of academic programs at this college/university is excellent. Q172 // This college/university provides an environment for the free and open expression of ideas, opinions, and beliefs. Q173 // An environment that includes people different from me improves my quality of education.
