At the direction of UK’s President Capilouto, the Center for Research on Violence Against Women developed the Campus Attitudes Toward Safety survey (C.A.T.S.) to provide administration with data about campus safety as an internal quality improvement project. The information collected covered students’ perceptions of campus safety, students’ knowledge of and inclination to use campus resources, bystander attitudes and behaviors, and students’ experience of violent or adverse incidents. Multiple UK services and departments collaborated on this project, and the resulting information is being widely distributed in order to acknowledge the current campus climate and suggest directions for improving campus safety.
