To the UB student community,<\/p>\n
At the University at Buffalo, there is nothing more important than the safety and well-being of our students.\u00a0 As part of our commitment to maintaining a safe campus, the University has developed programming, policies, resources, and collaborative efforts to reduce the perpetration of sexual assault and to ensure that we address sexual assault reports in a fair, supportive, prompt and effective manner.\u00a0 We know, however, that more can always be done.\u00a0 I am asking for your help in assessing the UB campus climate in order to understand the extent to which students experience sexual assault at UB, and the effectiveness of our prevention and response efforts.<\/p>\n
The University at Buffalo is one of five SUNY campuses that has been chosen to pilot the SUNY Sexual Violence Prevention (SVP) Campus Climate Survey this fall.\u00a0 This survey is intended to gather information about the rate of incidents of sexual violence and knowledge of policies and resources available on campus.\u00a0\u00a0 The questionnaire takes about 20 minutes to complete.\u00a0 Your participation is voluntary and you may choose to skip questions or stop responding at any point.<\/p>\n
Your responses will be extremely helpful to our sexual assault prevention efforts.\u00a0 Aggregate data from the survey will be available on UB\u2019s websites, and we will use the results of the survey to identify areas where additional training, education, resources and assistance is needed.\u00a0 We are committed to ensuring a safe, healthy, and nondiscriminatory environment for our students.<\/p>\n
Your responses will also be strictly confidential and will be reported only in terms of groups of students rather than as individuals.\u00a0 Because the survey seeks information to determine the extent to which sexual assault is underreported, some of the questions will ask about sexual and other personal information.\u00a0 Some individuals might experience emotional discomfort while responding to this survey, and to assist in this regard, we have provided information about campus resources should you wish to talk to someone further.<\/p>\n
