Still, he said, UNMC did not score as highly among some populations.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;There are high points, but there is work to do as well, especially in insuring we have a welcoming climate for all workers and learners,&quot; Dr. Gold said. &quot;This working group is the first step in taking what we&rsquo;ve learned from our students and employees and addressing their input to improve the UNMC experience to build the future for UNMC and for the communities we serve.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Among the survey&rsquo;s more positive responses:<\/p>\n<p>Among UNMC employees:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>82% agree or strongly agree they are treated with respect<\/li>\n<li>79% agree or strongly agree that their colleagues are committed to doing quality work<\/li>\n<li>78% agree or strongly agree that their supervisor cares about them<\/li>\n<li>75% agree or strongly agree UNMC is an open and trusting environment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Among UNMC students:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>92% agree or strongly agree they are respected by other students<\/li>\n<li>90% agree or strongly agree their studies will lead to a good job<\/li>\n<li>88% agree or strongly agree they are challenged academically<\/li>\n<li>80% agree or strongly agree they are respected by faculty<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNMC Chancellor Jeffrey P.
