Campus Life in America
Student Survey (CLASS Project)
The CLASS project is a study aimed at improving
educational outcomes for all students attending racially
and ethnically diverse colleges and universities. The
study asks three questions: (1) how engaged are today’s
undergraduates in diversity-related experiences; (2) how
do students evaluate those experiences; and (3) what can
colleges and universities do from the standpoint of
their policies and programs to maximize the educational
benefits of diversity. Data for the first wave of the
CLASS project have been gathered from more than 12,000
freshman and juniors in the fall of 2004. Freshmen in 2004 were reinterviewed in Fall 2006. These data
have been supplemented by on-campus interviews with
roughly 100 campus administrators. The CLASS projected
is supported with funds from the Ford Foundation.
