Subject: MIT Alumni Survey Date: Tue, 07 Apr 2009 12:54:55 -0400 From: Sherwin Greenblatt To: Jagruti Patel Dear Ms Patel: MIT values the insights and experiences of our alumni, and for that reason we periodically ask alumni to reflect on their time at MIT and provide us with feedback that can help us improve our academic and student programs. We have joined with a number of other private universities and are administering a survey to the classes of 1982, 1987, 1992, 1997, 2004 and 2007. I hope you will take a few moments to complete this survey. In addition to our academic departments, various committees and task forces at MIT will receive the data from this project. The survey is voluntary and takes about 30 minutes to complete. You may answer as few or as many questions as you wish. Your responses will be confidential. The results of this survey will only be reported in summary form and will provide important evaluations to academic departments and administrative areas of student life. You can access the online survey using the following link: This is a unique link assigned to you. For this reason, it is very important that you do not share it or forward this e-mail to anyone else. You are the best source of information about how well your MIT undergraduate education prepared you for the future, and your responses can help influence MIT's development as it prepares for the exciting years ahead. Thank you in advance for your participation. Sincerely, Sherwin Greenblatt Executive Vice President, MIT Alumni Association
