[Physics-grads-announce] Climate survey

[Jory Yarmoff]

Grad students - We have only a 57% participation rate in the survey, and would like to get it up to 100%.  So, the survey will stay active until the end of this week.  Please fill it out ASAP if you haven’t already done so. You can just answer the multiple choice questions if you don’t have anything to add.  You can also change your responses while it is open if you have something to add or want to modify any of your responses. 

In case it’s not clear, for many of the questions, 1 = strongly agree, 2 = agree, 3 = neutral, 4 = disagree, 5 = strongly disagree.  

Since it’s anonymous, I don’t know who has and who hasn’t completed it, so I have to message everyone.  Also, the longer it takes to get full participation, the longer it will take to analyze and present the results at a special town hall as was promised. 

Faculty - please remind your own grad students to fill out the survey.

>> The departmental graduate student climate survey is ready for your input, and can be accessed at https://forms.gle/bYFnPZm39u7WvZ5M8 <https://forms.gle/bYFnPZm39u7WvZ5M8>.  It was written by collaboration between the Graduate Diversity and Graduate Advisory committees after researching how similar surveys were conducted elsewhere. 
>> 
>> Please be assured that the survey is completely anonymous.  This was verified by myself and the chair of the graduate student diversity committee, Prof. Siana, by taking the survey to see how it reports information to us.  So please be honest and forthright in completing the survey, and be assured that we don’t have the ability to identify particular respondents. 
>> 
>> You will need to log in with your UCR R’Mail, but your e-mail address will not be included in the responses that we receive.  It is used by the system to verify that you are a UCR student and to insure that you only complete one survey.  However, you can return at any time to modify your responses before the survey period ends, meaning that it doesn’t need to be completed in one sitting. 
>> 
>> We are hoping to get 100% participation, so please fill it out as soon as you can.  The survey will be open for one week - we intend to close it Friday, June 4th at midnight. 
>> 
>> Thank you for participating in this survey.  We plan to share the results at a special town hall held over Zoom during the summer.
