The University would like to know more about perceptions of OWU’s campus climate, students’ perceptions of how OWU responds to sexual assaults, and experiences with unwanted sexual contact or sexual assault during their time at OWU.
We are writing now to ask you to participate in a survey about these issues. We hope that every student and employee will participate in this important survey, regardless of whether they have experienced unwanted sexual contact or sexual assault. We will use the results of this survey to inform and improve support, policies, and practices here at OWU. This survey usually takes less than 20 minutes to complete. We recommend that you take it in one sitting. If you leave and reenter the survey, you may lose your previous responses.
We will not use the information to investigate specific individuals or incidents. You may stop taking the survey at any time or choose not to answer particular questions. Your responses will be anonymous.
