Abstract

A survey of UWRF faculty, staff and students found, among other things, that there is broad faculty participation in research, scholarly and creative activities (e.g. nearly 30% of all UWRF faculty report having received external grant funding); faculty are very positive about their programs (78 percent think their program is good or excellent at developing critical thinking skills; faculty feel that UWRF is modestly successful in developing critical intellectual capacities in our students (writing, speaking, critical thinking, independent learning, problem solving); despite substantial dissatisfaction with aspects of work-life on campus (salary and benefits, classrooms, offices, facilities, etc.), nearly three-quarters of faculty and staff said they are ?very satisfied? or ?satisfied" with their job; most faculty and staff are aware of key elements of the strategic planning process.
