Q20 Across the faculty, there is generally a common understanding of the University's goals and mission. 36 Nearly evenly split between disagreement and agreement. Faculty appear a bit less inclined to support the statement than either department heads or steering committee members. In general, research and creative activity are adequately supported across all disciplines including the Sciences, Humanities, Arts, Social Sciences, and Professional programs for tenure-track faculty. This question may not be appropriately phrased because it is unclear as to whether students never acquire that understanding or they do not learn it by observing faculty.
All faculty agree or strongly agree with the statement.

At MSU-Bozeman, appropriate representation from across the faculty determines how IDC's are to be used. The remainder were spread from strongly agree to strongly disagree. Slight tendency toward disagreement.
