Hello Jag,

For years Senior Surveys have been given to all graduating students to 
learn about the full college experience from the senior perspective. 
With the Class of 2010 we have tried to learn important pieces of 
information each year (e.g, first year advising, major advising, 
decision about studying abroad) via Sophomore and Junior surveys, but 
the Senior Survey has a very different purpose and scope.

I am asking you to contribute your viewpoint to this year's Senior 
Survey. Whether or not you completed the other surveys mentioned above 
I'd like you to participate this year since the Senior Survey gives us 
the best look at your overall experience at Colby. Your responses are 
critical to the College and academic departments in assessing their 
programs and services. All your voices give us the best perspective on 
the Class of 2010.

The Senior Survey is now available to take. To take it, please click
on the url provided below. It should take about 20-25 minutes to
complete.  The survey will be online through the end of April, and I
will send reminders periodically (no reminders are sent once you
complete the survey). This survey is being hosted at MIT and is being
taken by all schools participating in the New England Consortium on
Assessment and Student Learning (NECASL), the group that provided the
Sophomore and Junior surveys you have been taking over the years. All
employees at Colby thank you in advance for your feedback.

Thank you for participating in this important activity. I will provide
some summary information for you within two weeks of the survey
closing if you participate. If you have any questions please send me
an email (wpwilson@colby.edu) and I will respond as quickly as
possible.
