UNO Housing and Residence Life is committed to creating a positive residential experience and supporting the evolving needs of our students.
Our Assessment Efforts
We strive to continuously improve and consistently meet the needs of our students. One way we accomplish this mission is through the assessment of our programs and services. We do this to ensure that we are responding appropriately to students' needs—as these needs change, we need to adapt.
We have placed a priority on assessment because we believe it provides insight to us on our areas of strength and also opportunities for growth.
Departmental Assessment Plan
Housing and Residence Life developed a departmental assessment plan to strategically guide assessment efforts each year. The plan aims to provide structure, intentionality, and continuity to these important efforts. It has been updated and edited over time to align with shifts in institutional and divisional priorities and goals.
Departmental Programming, Projects, and Annual Reporting Data
Using the departmental assessment plan, we report the results of all assessment initiatives at the conclusion of each cycle. With this information, we publish a variety of assessment-related documents which provide an overview of the projects conpleted over time, including the results and recommendations from each assessment.
We also collect and review data on student engagement in HRL, including program attendance and the engagment opportunities organized by HRL staff. The information and recommendations in these reports are instrumental as we adjust course each year to best serve our students. We invite you to review our assessment, engagement, and annual reports from the past years.
