Education Background
Gender and Sexual Orientation
Race
Religion
School
Year at Georgetown

Email us at StudentCommissionforUnity for more details!

The Georgetown University Student Association’s Student Commission for Unity is an innovative student-led, survey-based research project aimed at proposing and enacting a series of fact-based recommendations to unite Georgetown’s many diverse student communities by encouraging contemplation in action. The Commission will study answers to questions about University resources and discussions, discrimination and self-segregation based upon six criteria: gender and sexual orientation, school, class, education background, race and religion.

Each of these six criteria will have a Research Team of students assigned to studying and analyzing the results of the survey, as well as interviewing students, faculty, staff and administrators concerning the results of the survey. The Research Teams will write a critical summary of each of their assigned demographic studies. Finally, the Commission will develop an unlimited series of recommendations, centered around the democratically determined primary recommendations to be specifically pursued by Commission members who will become Action Teams from Research Teams.

The Commission has administered the survey to 1,517 undergraduate students on-line to students from all four schools. The Commission plans to unveil its findings, interviews, critical summaries and recommendations by January 2009.
