In the 1994 Senior Survey,
63% of the seniors felt "positive" about R/O Week and selecting
living groups during the first week. The 1997 Post-R/O Survey indicated

to the 1995 Survey of Sophomores about Freshman Year '94-'95, satisfaction
with the FSILG experience was most highly correlated with the sense of
community, close friendships, supportive upperclass students, and the intellectual
stimulation a living group fosters. (this footnote from the Summary)
