Spring 2017 Student Culture, Diversity, and Globalization Survey During the Spring 2017 semester, 11 students accessed the survey link for the Culture, Diversity, and Globalization Survey. In addition to the items presented in subsequent pages of this document, all respondents were also presented with five attention check items used to detect careless responding. Respondents who incorrectly answered three or more of the five attention check items were classified as careless responders. In this sample, no students who completed the survey provided responses that classified them as a careless responder. Thus, the final sample consisted of responses submitted by all 11 students. Results are presented on subsequent pages of this report as follows: General Freshmen Population (n = 11): pp. 2-12 Study Abroad Students (n = 0): not featured in this report International Students (n =0): not featured in this report
