Staff Campus Climate Survey

In April of 2022, the University conducted a survey to gather staff perceptions of our campus climate and work-life experiences which provided valuable insight into the quality of our working environment at ODU. The assessment gave staff the opportunity to candidly evaluate and comment on their individual experiences and observations. They also evaluated their familiarity with campus resources that address workplace matters such as harassment, Title IX, and discrimination concerns.

This anonymous survey was administered to 1,798 hourly employees, classified staff, and administrative & professional faculty. The Office of Institutional Effectiveness & Assessment distributed the survey, which took approximately 15 minutes to complete. 38% of staff (683) started the survey, and 32% of staff (575) completed the survey in full. The population of staff who completed the survey in full was 4% more female and 10% more white than the sample of all staff surveyed.
