*Division of Student Life Information/Web*

The Division of Student Life is planning a web site redesign and would
like to ensure that the new site meets the needs of students today and
in the future. To do so, they have developed a short questionnaire to
help them determine what information is useful, what information is
difficult to find in its current format and how you prefer to find
information about life or living at MIT. Please complete the linked
questionnaire by October 15, 2006 at which time, the committee will
reconvene to discuss the results and determine the best way to meet your
information needs. In addition, within the questionnaire, you will have
the option to provide your email if you would like to be contacted for
further web site development questions or as part of a focus group. This
is entirely optional. Your answers are very important and they look
forward to hearing from you on this topic that will impact the future of
student life at MIT.
 
Please visit http://www.surveyconsole.com/console/TakeSurvey?id=231593
to complete the survey.
