Campus Climate

Campus climate refers to the overall environment and atmosphere on a university or college campus, including the attitudes, behaviors, and experiences of students, faculty, and staff. It encompasses feelings of safety, inclusion, respect, and support. A positive campus climate promotes diversity, encourages open dialogue, and ensures that everyone feels valued and able to succeed. Conversely, a negative climate may involve discrimination, bias, or hostility, which can hinder learning and personal growth. Assessing and improving campus climate is essential for creating an equitable and welcoming educational environment for all community members.
