Members of the College community came together on February 12 for our latest All College Meeting. The agenda started with a brief budget overview and update on the EDI initiative from Dean Renée Cheng. The bulk of the meeting was dedicated to an update on strategic planning.
Survey results: Facilitation Team co-chairs, Nick Dreher and Ken-Yu Lin, highlighted some of the results from the three recent College of Built Environment surveys. You can find more details on the survey in this separate post.
Faculty + Staff Survey (82 respondents)
Student Survey (69 respondents)
Alumni + Community Survey (233 respondents)
