Introduction The Broad College of Business at Michigan State University is dedicated to cultivating a university community that fosters constructive participation in a diverse, multicultural world. The college has a history of supporting initiatives that foster learning and working environments that are safe and inclusive. To assess current campus climate, SoundRocket was contracted to conduct a survey on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion among the campus community. This study was designed to help the institution develop a baseline understanding of perceptions, experiences, and perspectives regarding several aspects of these topics among the campus community. See Part II for details about the specific populations included in this survey. The survey was designed to help administrators develop a base of knowledge around issues relating to diversity, equity, and inclusion by learning about the community’s perspectives, opinions, and experiences related to these topics. Data collected will help campus leaders develop a comprehensive understanding of DEI topics. Specifically, the data collected in the DEI survey will establish a baseline understanding of the present climate, help inform current and future decisions about supporting a diverse, inclusive, and vibrant campus community, and serve as a benchmark against which to measure change over time.
