Colleges and universities want to create campus climates where every community member thrives. However, increased incidents and reports of discrimination and harassment can threaten a healthy and safe campus climate. This issue is further compounded by the prevailing trends in higher education, including declining enrollment, rising dropout and transfer rates, as well as protests, demonstrations, and strikes. Shifting campus culture takes time, strategy, and data-informed decision-making.
HR 2477, also called the “Consolidated Appropriations Act,” requires colleges and universities that receive federal funding to administer a campus climate survey biennially to assess issues related to dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault, sexual harassment, and stalking. Many states have also passed laws requiring campus climate surveys as a condition for state funding.
