The school sent out the online survey in October. More than 1500 students and approximately 700 faculty and staff members responded.

The survey asked questions related to diversity at WSU, safety issues and how accessible the school is for people with disabilities. More than 80 percent of students surveyed say they’re at least somewhat satisfied with their experience at WSU.

Faculty and staff reported the highest level of dissatisfaction with benefits, professional development and salary, with more than 25 percent of respondents reporting some level of dissatisfaction in those areas.

The full survey is available here.
