This book examines campus climate data collected from
undergraduates at several large, public research universities
across the nation to enhance understanding of the long-term impact
of campus climate on student success. Many universities have
refocused their attention and energy on campus climate, defined in
this volume as students' perceptions of how welcoming and
respectful their campus environments are for students from
different social identities. As structural diversity continues to
grow more complex on college campuses around the nation, campus
leaders have begun to take more steps to understand campus climate
and address persistent inequalities, acts of discrimination, and
violence against students from diverse backgrounds. The authors in
this volume address initiatives to improve campus climate and
provide empirical evidence on the effectiveness of those programs.
