Purpose of survey: understand student perception of communications received from university leadership … or if students believe that the perspectives of the student body are being taken into account when decisions are being made by the university

Current questions:

  1. Student perspectives on university leadership and their communication to us
    1. “Are you familiar with the JHU Board of Trustees?”
    2. “Do you know which projects are on the Board of Trustees’ current agenda?“
      1. If so, what?
    3. “Do you know any projects the Board of Trustees has completed?”
      1. If so, what?
  2. Student perspectives - how they feel about communications and preparedness of MSE/HSC closure
    1. “Are you happy with the amount of communication you have received regarding the MSE closure?”
    2. “Are you happy with the amount of communication you have received regarding the Hopkins Student Center?”

Question ideas:

BoT

    2. Aware of them and their decisions - but not what they are working on
    3. Aware of them - but not their decisions or what they are working on
  2. Free response - to elaborate
  3. Do students feel like they understand the rationale behind decisions (generally) made by the BoT
  4. Do students feel like they are receiving adequate communications
  5. Do students know which university goals the BoT is actively working towards or discussing on a semesterly (½ year) basis
