By Joseph Lyell —

The 2017 campus climate survey depicts faculty and staff who are overworked with limited or inadequate resources to do their jobs.

More than half (53 percent) said their departments are not adequately staffed to cover the regular workload. This number increased from the 2014 survey, when 44 percent said their departments were understaffed.

More than 50 percent said they rarely, if ever, take breaks while at work. The majority of respondents said they work through lunch at least once per week.
