The Office of the Provost made the data available to all faculty via the learning management system. The Office of Institutional Effectiveness created data visualizations based on themes to represent the qualitative comments.
The Office of the Provost requested additional college-level reports for each of the remaining colleges.
The Office of the Provost held two public forums devoted to sharing the COACHE survey results with the campus community. The first presentation focused on the overall Chief Academic Officer Report and how faculty could access the report. The second presentation was a part of the GSU Diversity Dialogues and focused on under-represented minority faculty (URM faculty) survey responses.
