    Data Talk

    Whether you are staff, faculty, or a student, you know that there can be so much fatigue when it comes to surveys, evaluations, etc. You are asked to complete so many things but often never hear back about the findings and how findings are used on campus. Data Talk seeks to highlight the people on campus involved in assessment - the people who read your responses to various assessments - and use data to inform curricular and co-curricular improvements.
