Our research:  The Tri-Campus Equity Study

Welcome to the Resonance & Roots research page, where we delve into the findings of the Tri-Campus Equity Study. Here, you'll discover the survey responses that shed light on experiences within our university communities!!

Uncovering  our campus demographics:

Our research provides a comprehensive look at the demographics of the campus community on University of Stevens Point campuses. Understanding who makes up our vibrant university—including the diverse backgrounds of our student caregivers, non-traditional students, and those navigating healthcare or cultural grief traditions—is the first step in fostering a more inclusive environment.

The racial equality experience at UWSP

A key focus of the Tri-Campus Equity Study is the racial equality experience. We highlight crucial insights into how racial equity is perceived and experienced by students and staff—including within local healthcare systems, during times of family medical crisis, and in the availability of culturally responsive grief support—aiming to bring these narratives to the forefront for meaningful discussion and action.

 

Identifying barriers and resource gaps on our campuses

Our findings reveal encountered barriers to accessing essential services, as well as identified resource gaps within the university. This includes areas such as Diversity Immigration Support, culturally specific healthcare—including elder care, palliative resources, and community grief support—specialized food options, and safe social spaces for BIPOC/Immigrant networking.

Empowering voices, fostering change for our UWSP communities:

We believe this research will make a significant difference by empowering individuals and bringing visibility to critical issues and resource needs. By providing better access to resources and creating a platform for sharing experiences, we aim to ensure every person has a voice and feels supported.
