I am working on a survey designed to provide information about how students perceive their place in the larger State College community. One of the questions I am tweaking (which I borrowed from another survey - thank you, UNC Wilmington!), asks students to rate their level of agreement with the following statement: "I actively demonstrate respect for my peers". This seems pretty vague to me - how does one "actively demonstrate respect"? Perhaps it's in the "I know it when I see it" category? But I delved into the source of all information - Google - to explore this question. In my wanderings, I found a fairly simple list that I thought was a good start and it reminded me that I am not always the person I want to be when I don't model the examples on the list. Anyway, I thought I'd share the link: 10 Ways to Show Respect.
