Dear CEE Community:

Next Tuesday February 13 we are launching a CEE department-wide climate survey. Please do the survey! We need everyone’s input on their experiences, the good and the bad, to help us continue to make the CEE community as welcoming and inclusive as possible. We want to hear from all of you!

A link to the survey will be sent by email Tuesday morning and it should take about 10 minutes to complete. We will allocate time for you to do it in meetings and classes. More details on the survey, including draw prizes, are below.

Thanks for your help.

As part of CEE’s strategic plan we are commiting to improving the experience of all CEE community members. This annual survey allows us to measure progress and prioritize areas for improvement to create a welcoming and supportive environment for all, regardless of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, nationality, socioeconomic status, language, (dis)ability, age, political perspective, or other groups. 

CEE will do this survey annually. Results will be used to help us develop actionable strategies and to monitor our progress toward a stronger and more supportive CEE community. We will report back to the CEE community on the results of this survey in Spring 2024.

To limit participation to CEE community members, you will need to be logged in with your UW NetID. 

To protect confidentiality:

• The survey is anonymous (NetIDs / email addresses will not be connected to your responses).
• You can choose not to answer questions.
• Data will be analyzed only by members of the DEI committee.
• Survey results will not be reported for groups containing fewer than 5 individuals.

To encourage participation, we will randomly select four respondents to receive a $25 Starbucks gift card. If we achieve a minimum of 70% participation, we will randomly select one respondent to receive a $500 Apple or Microsoft gift card.
