The complexities, variances and nuances of each of these roles has provided us with an in-depth report, and we encourage you to engage with the tools provided as we thoughtfully use these results to build a more inclusive and equitable UMass community.

As we reflect on the climate data, we recommend that you to apply an equity-minded approach and to consider the complexity of the experiences and perspectives of our community members.

The Campus Climate Survey was conducted in the fall 2021 semester by the Office of Equity and Inclusion and the Office of Academic Planning and Assessment. Final results yielded a 41.6% response rate, providing the university with an in-depth look into the campus climate as we work towards building strategic initiatives for a more inclusive and equitable UMass Amherst.
