Update January 2023
The results of the 2021 Student Experiences Survey inspired the the Queen’s Shift Project, a collection of events and initiatives aimed at centering equity-deserving student experiences, providing opportunities for dialogue around topics outlined in the survey, and acting on next steps towards improving campus culture at Queen’s.
The Queen’s Shift Project events and initiatives are open to all students looking to be a part of the shift towards a safer and more inclusive student experience for all.
The Queen's campus climate survey has been renamed the Shift Survey. Students received an invitation to complete the survey in January 2023.
