Faculty exit survey
The Office of the Provost would like to remind you to please provide separating faculty with the faculty exit survey prior to the separation date. The printed hardcopy of the faculty exit survey is no longer accepted. The valuable information gleaned from survey responses is used to further enhance the faculty experience at VCU. If you have any questions, please contact the Office of the Provost at provost@vcu.edu.
As always, thank you for your continued support and partnership with VCU HR.
All my best, Cathleen C. Burke Assistant Vice President for Human Resources Virginia Commonwealth University
