SNF Labmember Survey

SNF Labmember Survey

Dear Labmembers:

Your friendly neighborhood SNF staff and faculty Advisory Committee, on
behalf of the National Science Foundation, are asking for your help in
providing feedback about our lab. In addition to satisfying the NSF
reporting requirement, the survey results will be used by the staff and
the Advisory Committee to set the agenda and priorities for the lab.
Your honest, constructive feedback is valued.  

In order to encourage feedback (NSF requires that we provide a 75%
response rate), labmembers who return survey forms will be automatically
entered into a drawing for a free lunch at Bytes cafe.  The 10 lucky
labmembers, picked at random, will be notified by email by 10/18/02. 

Blank survey forms will be available outside the lab entrance and online
at the SNF website (http://snf.stanford.edu).  PDF and Word versions of
the forms are also attached to this email or in text form at the bottom
of this email. Forms may be returned to the labeled box outside the lab
entrance or by mail to:

Labmember Survey
Attn:  Jane Edwards
CIS Room 130, Mail code 4070
jane.edwards at stanford.edu
Stanford University
Stanford, CA.  94305-4075

Please return responses by 10/15/02.  Responses will then be tabulated
and summarized for all labmembers to review.


Thank you for your help,

On behalf of NSF, the SNF Staff and Advisory Committee
