Campus climate survey timeline, from planning to follow-up

A phase-by-phase timeline for running a campus climate survey: planning, design, communication, a 3 to 4 week field period, analysis, public reporting, action planning, implementation and a follow-up pulse at 12 to 18 months. Use it to set dates with your advisory committee. Koji fits the design and administration phases, where you draft and pilot the survey.
