To: From: Rommel Guadalupe Subject: Wesleyan First-year Student Survey Dear [Student First Name]: A few days ago, I contacted you about the 2007 CIRP (Cooperative Institutional Research Program) Freshman Survey. Wesleyan uses the data from this survey to better understand our incoming students, to see how our students differ from those attending other colleges, and to plan appropriate academic and extra-curricular programs. As a new member of the Wesleyan community, your input is very valuable to us, so please complete the survey at your earliest convenience. To access the survey, please click on the following link: [URL] This is a unique link assigned to you. For this reason, it is important that you do not share it or forward this e-mail. Please feel free to be open and honest with your responses because your responses will be strictly confidential. Your participation in the survey is voluntary and will not affect your standing at Wesleyan. The survey consists of nine linked sections; please complete all sections so that we have a record of your full set of responses. This survey takes approximately 20-25 minutes to complete. It will be best if you can complete it in one sitting. However, you can save your work and return to this link later to complete it then. If you encounter any problems while taking the survey, please contact me at rguadalupe@wesleyan.edu. Thank you for your help with this important study, [Student first name]. Sincerely, Rommel Guadalupe Assistant Director of Institutional Research Wesleyan University
