Personal Demographic Information

• WSU is committed to providing equal opportunity in education and employment, and in all aspects of university activities.  A critical element of our commitment to diversity lies in our ability to collect and assess student and employee demographic data.  Your response to the voluntary WSU Employee Demographic Information Survey would be very helpful in our efforts to create a rich and inclusive community for all at WSU.  Visit the Office for Equal Opportunity’s website at oeo.wsu.edu/eeo-aa-compliance for more information and to complete the survey.
