Need another pep talk? Check out a new interview with Rahim Reed, associate executive vice chancellor in the Office of Campus Community Relations, who is leading the survey on the Davis campus.

He addresses the campus climate and urges everyone to take the survey: “A lot of people think sometimes that raising their voice or making their voice heard about certain events and challenges that we face on campus are really just like yelling into the wind or calling into the wind, and that no one will really hear them or really pay attention.

“But I want to assure that your voice will be heard if you take the time to complete the survey.”

It is believed to be one of the largest surveys of its kind in the nation, going to some 430,000 people: students, staff and faculty on every UC campus and medical center, and at the Office of the President, Agriculture and Natural Resources, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
