This year, the Graduate School at UT Austin has begun its first ever survey of graduate student experiences.   While over four thousand students have participated, it is crucial to hear from as many students as possible. To date, only 36% of students in the College of Education have taken part in the survey, and we would definitely like to improve that percentage to make sure our opinions are represented. If you have not already done so, we encourage you to set aside a few minutes to take the Graduate School Climate Survey by clicking the following link.

Participating students will be included in a raffle for football and performing arts tickets, Texercise passes, RecSports packages, and more.  If you have any questions about the survey, contact gscs@prc.utexas.edu
