Campus Climate Survey on Sexual Misconduct launches Jan. 29

On Thursday, Jan. 29, Wake Forest University launched the Campus Climate Survey on Sexual Misconduct. The survey builds on the University’s 2022 campus climate survey and reflects an ongoing, proactive commitment to prevention, education and community care.

Four years ago, the first campus climate survey provided meaningful insights that reshaped how the University supports and engages its community. Because of what students shared, Wake Forest expanded prevention efforts, education and resources across campus. This survey cycle will assess how those efforts have evolved and identify where continued growth is needed. The effort has been strengthened through partnership with the student-led Executive Advisory Council and grounded in student voices. While Wake Forest is proud of the progress made since the 2022 Prevention Plan, continued progress depends on ongoing engagement and student participation.

The survey is administered by NORC at the University of Chicago, a nonprofit research organization. Undergraduate and graduate students on the Reynolda Campus will receive a personalized email from wfusurvey@norc.org with a unique link to participate. Participation is voluntary, and all responses are confidential. We encourage you to learn more about the climate survey here. This webpage includes an FAQ about the survey, including additional information about NORC at the University of Chicago, confidentiality and results analysis.

The survey remains open through Monday, Mar. 16. More information is available at ipv.wfu.edu.
