Campus Climate survey results the focus at Jan. 18 session

Susan Rankin, the national consultant retained by UW-Green Bay to head up the 2011 Campus Climate project, will summarize her findings and the survey results in a public presentation on Wednesday, Jan. 18.  (That’s the afternoon of Mid-Year Convocation.) Rankin will lead an open session from 1:15 to 2:30 p.m. in the University Union’s Phoenix Room. Her topic is “Creating a Welcoming Campus — How Welcoming is the Campus and How Do We Know?” She’ll summarize the research and highlight positive practices that can be implemented at campuses the size and nature of UW-Green Bay.

Also open to all will be a second afternoon session titled “A Discussion on Workplace Climate Issues,” from 2:45 to 3:30 p.m. in the Union’s 1965 Room. Rankin is an associate professor of education and a senior research associate in the Center for the Study of Higher Education at Penn State University.

We’ll have more on the afternoon’s programs and reminders in future issues of this newsletter. To review the full report and see the itinerary for Rankin’s visit, click here.
