Task Force Authority and Report

The Task Force shall develop and recommend to the Board of Higher Education the base survey for distribution to higher education institutions and provide the Board of Higher Education with any related recommendations regarding the content, timing, and application of the base survey.

The Task Force met throughout 2022 and 2023 to complete its work. The base survey and related recommendations on survey implementation can be found in the Task Force Report published July 31, 2023.

Public Act 104-0127 (2025) updated the Preventing Sexual Violence in Higher Education Act to require all institutions of higher education to conduct the Campus Sexual Misconduct Climate Survey biennially (every two years). Before this change, institutions were required to conduct the Campus Sexual Misconduct Climate Survey annually. Institutions are not required to conduct the survey or report to IBHE or ICCB again until 2027.
