3 Survey and Project Overview The Culturally Engaging Campus Environments (CECE; pronounced see-see) Survey is designed to measure the 9 CECE indicators that represent the characteristics of optimally inclusive and equitable campus environments. These indicators also denote the 9 elements of environments that allow diverse populations to thrive in college. College and university campuses can use the CECE Survey and these 9 CECE indicators to: Create dialogue that is centered on the things that matter most when serving diverse student populations. Diagnose their campus environments from an inclusion and equity perspective. Identify where these environments can be improved. Develop plans to cultivate more inclusive and equitable environments. Create environments that maximize success among all students regardless of their backgrounds and identities. The CECE Project provides a wide array of services for institutions of higher education that seek to advance their campus diversity, inclusion, and equity efforts. The CECE Project s mission is founded on four core pillars: Equity: We focus on the goal of equity, or creating systems and structures that provide equal opportunities for faculty, staff, and students to thrive regardless of their backgrounds and identities. Transformation: We believe that isolated and surface level changes are not sufficient to address the diversity problems that college campuses face. Solutions require a commitment to long-term and systemic efforts to solve systemic problems and positively transform institutions. Such systemic efforts require re-examining and re-thinking the cultures and structures of colleges and universities. Vision: We believe that diversity, inclusion, and equity efforts are more effective when communities have a common vision and are working toward the same goals. The CECE Model delineates the types of environments that all students need to access in order to thrive in college, and this model is central to our work. Inquiry: We believe that high-quality and well-executed research and assessment is integral to generating the knowledge that is needed to inform continuous improvement efforts in the areas of diversity, inclusion, and equity. 3
4 Snapshot The CECE Survey is designed to measure the 9 CECE indicators that represent the characteristics of optimally inclusive and equitable institutional environments. These indicators also denote the 9 elements of environments that allow diverse populations to thrive in college. This Snapshot is a concise collection of key findings from your institution s CECE Survey administration. This information can help stimulate discussion about your campus culture. CECE Indicators The CECE Survey measures student perceptions of the presence of culturally engaging campus environments. At right are summary results for your institution. Key: Cultural Familiarity Culturally Relevant Knowledge comparison Your students' average was significantly higher (p <.05) with an effect size at least.3 in magnitude Your students' average was significantly higher (p <.05) with an effect size less than.3 in magnitude Cultural Community Service Cross Cultural Engagement Your students' average was significantly lower (p <.05) with an effect size less than.3 in magnitude Your students' average was significantly lower (p <.05) with an effect size at least.3 in magnitude There was no statistically significant difference between your institution s average score and the comparison group Cultural Validation Collectivist Cultural Environment Humanized Educational Environment Proactive Philosophies Holistic Support
5 How Students Assess Their Experience The CECE Survey included items related to sense of belonging, academic self-efficacy, academic motivation, and cultural appreciation.

9 Administration Summary This section provides an overview of your CECE administration, including details about your sample, response rates, survey customization options, and recruitment message schedule. This information can be useful for assessing data quality and planning future CECE administrations. For more respondent characteristics, see the Respondent Profile section of this report. Introduction During the academic year, the Culturally Engaging University (CEU) worked with the CECE Project to conduct a school-wide assessment for its undergraduate students. The purpose of this assessment was to understand how CEU cultivates an inclusive, equitable, and supportive campus environment for diverse students. Through analyzing the data collected from the CECE undergraduate survey, this assessment produces insights regarding the undergraduate students perceptions and experiences of the CEU campus environments. This report offers a summary of the key findings to inform institutional policies and practices that aim to achieve CEU s mission and vision to examine, understand, and improve their campus environments and maximize success among diverse student populations (CEU s Mission & Vision, 2016). 2 Procedures The CECE Project administered the CECE survey to the CEU undergraduate population. The CECE undergraduate survey included 83 items. The survey was disseminated to the CEU s undergraduate students between April 18 and June 3 of 2016 using the Qualtrics online survey system. The initial invitation was sent on April 18, and five weekly reminder s were sent on April 25, May 9, 23, and 30 to encourage survey participation and completion. CEU s undergraduate students who were at least 18 years old and were enrolled during the time of administration were eligible survey participants and invited to participate in the survey. With regard to survey incentives, the CEU offered $15 gift cards to their campus bookstore to student participants who completed and submitted the survey before the survey closure on June 3, The survey was sent out to 6,126 undergraduate students, and there were a total of 582 recorded responses, which yielded an approximate 9.4% response rate. The survey data was analyzed to illuminate school-wide perspective and compare views and experiences across subgroups. 2 CEU is a fictional institution.

10 CECE Indicator Report CECE indicators provide a useful summary of the detailed information contained in your students CECE survey responses. By combining responses to related CECE questions, each indicator offers valuable information about a distinct aspect of the campus environment. Nine indicators, each measured by three to six survey questions, are organized into two broad themes: Cultural Relevance Cultural familiarity Culturally relevant knowledge Cultural community service Meaningful cross-cultural engagement Cultural validation Cultural Responsiveness Collectivist cultural orientations Humanized educational environments Proactive philosophies Holistic Support How CECE Indicator Scores are Computed In the CECE Indicator Report, each Indicator score is expressed on an 80-point scale. Component items are converted to an 80-point scale (e.g., for positively worded items, the scale scores would be as follows: Strongly Disagree = 0, Somewhat Disagree = 20, Neither Disagree nor Agree = 40, Somewhat Agree = 60, Strongly Agree = 80), and then averaged together to compute student-level scores. Thus, a score of zero means a student responded at the bottom of the scale for every item in the CECE Indicator, while a score of 80 indicates responses at the top of the scale on every item. Institutional CECE scores are the averages of student-level scores for each group under comparison (e.g., aggregate, racial groups, gender, and enrollment status). Report Sections Overview: Displays how average CECE scores for your students compare with the students at all CECE 2016 institutions. Mean Comparisons: Straightforward comparisons of average indicator scores between your institution and all CECE institutions, with tests of significance and effect size. Effect size indicates the practical importance of an observed difference. Comparisons with an effect size of at least.3 in magnitude (before rounding) are highlighted in the overview. Indicator reports: These reports include within-institution comparison of mean scores for selected groups of students (arranged by gender, enrollment status, generation status, and race). These reports also include a summary of indicator items: responses to each item in a given CECE indicator are provided (as the percent somewhat agreeing or strongly agreeing with each item). 10

Values and response options: Variable names are included for easy reference to your data file and codebook. Also, variable response options are provided; these are also worded as they appear on the instrument. Count and column percentages: The Count column contains the number of students who selected the corresponding response options. The column percentage is the percentage of students selecting the corresponding response option. Please see attached document for item frequencies and respondent profile. Important Notes 1. This report focuses on data generated from the CECE Undergraduate Survey. A CECE Graduate Survey for graduate students was made available in 2016 and a CECE Faculty Survey will be made available in Subsequent annual reports will include a comparison of UHWO s CECE indicator scores across time, so that your campus can track progress toward cultivating more diverse, inclusive, and equitable campus environments. 3. Although the CECE Project understands that campuses seek to utilize survey results to inform institutional improvement efforts, the ways in which campuses should apply CECE survey findings will vary across institutions and depend on each organization s history, culture, and community context. As a result, the CECE Project does not provide recommendations within its annual reports. The project does offer holistic organizational diversity assessments, professional development services, expert consultations, and institutional change toolkits that can be leveraged in combination with the CECE indicators to cultivate more diverse, inclusive, and equitable environments. 21
