I received this e-mail message today:

“Dear BOB. ,

The Penn State Alumni Association needs your help.

The Alumni Association is partnering with a market research company to conduct a brief survey of alumni to better understand alumni views and opinions on a variety of issues involving Penn State.

You have been selected to share your thoughts and opinions.

Later this week, you will receive an invitation to participate in this study from alumni-survey@ddar.psu.edu. I ask you to please take a few minutes to complete this very important survey.

Your responses will be anonymous and the survey should take about 12-15 minutes to complete.

We value your input, and your participation is greatly appreciated.


For the Glory,

Paul J. Clifford
CEO and Life Member”

Weird thing is - my name is not Bob.

A perfect use for tongs.

Fats agrees.

I received this exact same survey....However, you did fail to mention that Damby and Co were awarded the contract to conduct the survey, tally results, and hold a press conference to release their findings and implications.

could be- but I was most unpleasant - I don't think they could have possibly missed my point

I blame Jay

They had THEIR results tallied and THEIR findings completed well before the survey ever went out.....

 

[psuro]

I blame Jay

That would explain it.

I received the actual survey today and completed it. It was designed better than other surveys over the years and included a couple of open ended questions where you could write comments. For those that received it, I suggest filling it out.

 

[Victor E. Bell]

I'm not getting a survey, I'm sure. Every time I get a beg letter it has my phone number from twenty years ago, which is understandable if I didn't update it which I did, they lost my current land line. I've had this number for 17 or 18 years. They have my number from Y2K. Not complaining but some poor bastard in Centre Hall must be hating me about now. Give early and often.

I've filled out a few surveys and they apparently don't have my current email. The surveys are a complete waste of time. You might as well write to your congressman about a pothole.

 

[Ian]

In dealing with the PSAA, i’ve Made it clear that they will get no more $$$ until the statue is put back.

 

[interrobang]

That survey was painful. Half the questions were about things that only someone a few years out of college would remember and other stuff that only those in a hiring or HR position would be able to give honest feedback on.
