Your Voice Matters! Participate in EIU's Climate Survey Starting October 14
Dear EIU Students, Faculty, and Staff,
I am pleased to announce that on October 14, 2024, we will be launching our Climate Survey, and I encourage you to take part in this important initiative. This survey will be available for 23 days, and I urge each of you to use this opportunity to make your voice heard.
Your participation is crucial. The results of this survey will provide us with valuable insights and feedback, which will directly inform the work of the Belonging, Access, and Equity Council (BAEC) as we develop EIU's Diversity Strategic Plan. The themes that emerge from the survey will help guide our efforts to enhance inclusion, belonging, and engagement throughout our university community.
We want to make this process as engaging as possible, so we will be holding a random drawing for prizes at the conclusion of the survey window. Separate drawings will be held for students, faculty, and staff participants, so there will be opportunities for everyone to win.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to complete this short but vital survey. Your insights will play a key role in propelling EIU forward on our collective journey toward greater belonging, access, and engagement.
I look forward to reviewing the results and working together to continue making EIU a more inclusive and supportive community for all.
Regards,
John W. Blue
