National Campus Climate Survey

The National Campus Climate Survey (NCCS) is a service offered to institutions of higher education in the United States who would like to better understand and improve their campus climate with regards to sexual assault and related topics. The study is designed to: 1. * Meet all state and federal requirements for the conduct of sexual assault surveys. 2. * Provide a scientifically rigorous survey instrument to help schools learn about the campus climate concerning sexual misconduct. 3. * Provide varying survey implementation tiers to match institutions' varying needs for defensible data. 4. * Provide a benchmarking tool to allow institutions to compare their results against other participating institutions, and where possible, peer groups. The National Campus Climate Survey was developed at the University of Michigan in collaboration with a local survey research firm, SoundRocket (formerly known as Survey Sciences Group, LLC) The study was developed in response to the report from the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault.
