The December, 2003, E-lumni News readership survey was a huge success: more than 1,200 of you responded! In general, it seems that you like what you’re getting. We do anticipate some upgrades in the future, but changes won’t be immediate.

If you wrote a specific comment and wanted a response, but haven’t yet received one, please be patient. With the high number of responses, it will take us quite some time to respond to all comments.

If you’d like to see the survey results, take a look at the E-lumni News Readership Survey Results web page (PDF document).
