Dear Graduate of Dartmouth's Class of 1998,

Many of the outcomes of a college education are not obvious until 
some time passes after graduation.  How your Dartmouth experience 
affected you and your classmates is of great interest to the 
College.  The only way we can obtain insights is with your 
help.  Accordingly, Dartmouth is conducting a web-based survey of the 
classes of 1998 and 2004.

The primary purpose of this survey is to determine your perspective 
on how well the College is serving our students and meeting its 
overall objectives.  Your personal responses will be important both 
for what you tell us about your experience and for helping us achieve 
a response rate high enough to provide confidence that the results 
are representative of your class.  We are cooperating with thirty 
other private colleges and universities in this survey of alumni, so 
we will be able to place your responses in the context of responses 
from other institutions.

You may be assured of complete confidentiality.  No individually 
identifiable information will be reported in any form.  Results from 
this survey will be shared with College officers, deans, and faculty 
leaders to assist them in setting priorities and making policy
decisions.

The Dartmouth coordinator for the project is Heather Kim, Director of 
Institutional Research.  If you have any questions regarding this 
survey, please contact her at heather.kim@dartmouth.edu.  Thank you 
for considering this request.  The survey will help us improve all 
that we do for current and future students, and I hope you will 
complete it at your earliest convenience.  Thank you for all you do 
for Dartmouth.
