This report is based on information from all randomly selected students for both your institution and your comparison institutions.

Targeted and locally administered oversamples (i.e., non-randomly selected students) are not included in this report.

c

Sampling error is an estimate of the margin by which the true score for your institution on a given item could differ from the reported score.

To interpret the sampling error, assume that 60% of your students reply "very often" to a particular item. If the sampling error is +/-5%, then the

true population value is most likely between 55% and 65%.

Percent of total respondents within each category. These results are not weighted.

e

Institution-reported data. This information was used to weight your Mean Comparisons, Frequency Distributions, and Benchmark Comparisons reports.
