Subject: New Student Survey 2006

August 2006
To:  Students in the Class of 2010
From:  James Miller, Dean of Admissions
  
Every two years Brown participates in the CIRP (Cooperative
Institutional Research Program) survey of entering students. The
survey allows us to compare the interests and backgrounds of incoming
Brown students with students entering other universities, and to use
the results to plan appropriate academic and extra-curricular programs
for Brown. It is important, therefore, that we have the participation
of as many students from the Class of 2010 as possible.
 
Please complete the survey on-line in the next few days, and no later
than August 21.  To thank you for our help, we will be holding a
raffle for respondents of the survey. The prizes will be $100, $75,
and $25 (5) gift certificates to the Brown Bookstore.  The sooner you
complete the survey the more times we will enter you in the survey.
If you complete the survey the first week your name will be entered 3
times, the 2nd week twice and thereafter once.  So complete please
your survey as early as you can.
  
You can access the survey at 
[link].
  
Your response to this survey will be held in strictest confidence. The
surveys are processed at another university, and any reports of the
survey results will be in the form of group averages. We will not have
access to your individual responses. We will track respondents for the
raffle only, and your name will not be linked to your responses to the
survey.
  
Thanks for your cooperation and we look forward to your arrival at
Brown! If you have any questions about the survey, you can send them
to advising@brown.edu.
