Beginning the week of March 26, the 2018 Climate Check-in Survey will be delivered to OHIO student email accounts; the survey will ask about students’ experiences while at Ohio University, including questions about discrimination, harassment and sexual misconduct.

The survey is confidential and should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Students will have until Friday, April 27 to #TakeTheSurvey and make their voice heard.

“Student feedback is critical to helping us evaluate OHIO’s efforts in creating and maintaining a culture of respect and helping us identify areas in which we can improve,” said Executive Director and Title IX Coordinator Sara Trower. “I encourage everyone to help us achieve our survey response rate goal of 35 percent. The more responses we receive, the more accurate our results will be.”

The first 4,000 participants who complete the survey will receive a prize code that can be redeemed for a Bobcat branded “thank you” gift, including: Ohio University keychains, Ohio University water bottles, Ohio University stainless steel mugs and more.
