The Graduate School is also a school/college home for some graduate students. In Fall 2021 there were 11 students in graduate programs housed in the Graduate School. None of these students responded to the 2021 climate survey so the Graduate School does not appear in the school/college filter. The following variables were asked of students rather than taken from administrative records that are already defined. 1. Gender - available selections were Man, Nonbinary/Gender not Listed, Woman to the question 'What is your gender?' 2. Transgender Status - available selections were Yes or No to the question 'Are you transgender?' 3. LGBTQ+ Status - available selections were Yes or No to the question 'Do you identify as part of an LGBTQ+ community?' 4. Religious views - available selections to the question 'With which of the following religions or spiritual affiliations do you identify?' include: Atheist/Agnostic/None (Only), Buddhist (Only), Christian (Only), Hindu (Only), Jewish (Only), Muslim (Only), Other/Multifaith. 5. Political views - available selections to the question 'In terms of political views, would you say you are....' include: Conservative, Moderate, Liberal, Other/None. 6. Disability Status - available selections were Yes or No to the question 'Do you identify as a person with a disability?' 7. Veteran Status - available selections were Yes or No to the question 'Have you ever served in the United States Armed Forces, Military Reserves, or National Guard?' 8.
