2020 Survey Response Rates
A total of 548 faculty members responded to the 2020 survey, representing 51% of eligible career-track and tenure-track faculty. As expected, due to the pandemic, JMU's 2020 completion rate was 17% lower than the 2016 rate, but considered to be acceptable for analysis, especially because JMU's 2020 overall completion rate of 51% was very close to the Peer Group rate (55%) and well above the Cohort Group rate (44%).
