WSU Vancouver Survey

On Wednesday, August 20, the Interim Chancellor Sandra Haynes sent the WSU Vancouver community that is part of the Administrative Services Review aimed at preparing us for the work the rpk GROUP to “strengthen WSU Vancouver for today and the future.” I am not sure if you have started the survey, but I just finished it. Here are some things to know:

  • It is best to type the responses in Word and paste them into the “line”.  In other words, there is no textbox that allows us to easily read through our responses and fine tune them
  • You cannot save as you go, but luckily it does not time out
  • At the end you can “save” the survey and print it out, but you do not know that until you get to the end of the survey. I do not know where it saved to and am still looking for the “doc”
  • There are 22 screens of questions divided into what is working, what is not working, and suggestions we may have
  • It is clear that we are talking only about our own campus administration
  • It does not touch on academics or our college issues; it is focuses on campus processes
  • It took me two hours to complete a draft of it
  • There is NO deadline for when to turn it in
  • There is no indication about how rpk plans to organize and synthesize this information

Let me or your CFR Representative know if you have any comments or questions. I will continue to collect items that we all need to be aware of as we undertake this activity.
