Climate Survey Mission

Access, opportunity, and diversity – these are the defining qualities of AIC. We seek to uphold these ideals for all students, staff, and faculty to thrive on campus and beyond. AIC has formed the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Steering Committee (DEISC), which consists of students and employees whose diversity in identity and thought reflects the College’s community. This committee will provide recommendations to administration to enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion at AIC.

With this goal in mind, the committee’s first task was to have the College undergo a critical climate assessment during the fall of 2022. A team from Rankin & Associates Consulting, LLC worked with the DEISC to develop and disseminate a survey across campus specifically tailored for AIC. The DEISC will use these responses to make recommendations to College administration to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion for everyone that is a part of the AIC campus community and to thereby create and foster an environment that prioritizes students and employees alike.
