Subject: Washington University Alumni Survey - Classes of 1999 and
2004  

Dear [salutation] [lastname],

It would be terrific to hear from you. The Alumni Survey provides an
opportunity to reflect on your undergraduate experience and provide
important feedback to Washington University. Your insights will inform
our efforts to continue to improve and provide the best possible
undergraduate experience. I hope that you will take a few minutes to
complete the survey. 

All responses will remain strictly confidential. The data will only be
used for aggregated reports stripped of individual identifiers. The id
associated with your questionnaire will permit us to avoid sending you
follow-up mailings, once your response is received.

This is a unique link assigned to you.  This survey takes
approximately 25 minutes to complete.  I encourage you to fill out the
survey as soon as possible, but allow enough time to complete it in
one sitting.  If you encounter any problems while taking the survey,
please contact AlumniSurvey@wustl.edu.

Washington University is cooperating with 31 other highly selective
research universities and liberal arts colleges in this survey. The
objectives for this research include identifying ways to keep college
affordable and institutions academically excellent. Your thoughtful
response is very important to us.

Thanks for your help with this project. 

Best regards,


James E. McLeod
