A message from Vice President for Human Resources Bryan Garey about the campus climate survey

To the Virginia Tech community,

I invite everyone to participate in this year’s climate survey, which will be available March 18-29. The survey is an opportunity to collectively reflect on employee perceptions as it relates to job satisfaction, work environment, and the university’s commitment to diversity, inclusion, and leadership. We want to hear from you!

Today, all faculty, staff, and non-student wage employees with a Virginia Tech email address, across all locations, will receive an email from climatesurvey@vt.edu inviting them to complete the survey. Those without computer access can complete the survey by using a QR code or submitting a paper survey. 

The information you provide will lead to a better understanding of the campus experience for different groups of people and across locations.  

I want to assure everyone that the information we receive from the survey is confidential and will be protected. Although participants have a unique link, employee data is not part of the survey; only your responses to the survey questions. Names and identifiers are removed, and only aggregated data will be reported. In addition, categories must have a minimum of 10 responses to be shared collectively.

Thank you in advance for taking the climate survey. To see the results from previous surveys, visit the HR website. Every response matters so please use this opportunity to speak up, share your input, and help make Virginia Tech a better place to work, study, and serve. 

Sincerely,

Bryan Garey,
Vice President for Human Resources
