Perceptions of Campus Community and Its Effects on Campus Climate

Abstract

This proposed research identifies sub groups’ sense of campus community and campus climate among undergraduate students at SUNY Brockport. Campus climate is measured to evaluate a campus’s environment based on interpersonal, academic, and professional interactions. With data analyzed from the 2012 SUNY Student Opinion Survey, bivariate, multivariate, and cross tabulation techniques are used to depict perceptions of campus climate pertaining to divergence among gender, race, on campus or off campus living, and transfer students.
