BLAIR ADVISER SURVEY (UPPERCLASSMEN)

We are interested in students’ observations about the effectiveness of our advising system. Your comments are important and will be compiled into an anonymous format. Please return this survey to the collection box in the student lounge.

Adviser’s Name: __________________________________________________________

1. Students are required to meet with their advisers at pre-registration each semester.

Have these meetings been productive?

2. Does your adviser have office hours at enough different times during the week for you to be able to schedule an appointment conveniently?

3. Have you met with your adviser on other occasions (excluding lessons, if your adviser is also your studio teacher)? Have these meetings been helpful? Have your questions been answered?

4. Has your adviser explained clearly Blair’s academic and curriculum requirements? Is there information that you would have liked to have had in a different format besides the Undergraduate Catalog, Beginning at Blair, and your Degree Audit?

5. Has your adviser referred you to any other campus offices or departments for assistance? To whom were you referred? Did this referral help solve your problem?

6. Are there ways in which your adviser could have been more helpful? If so, please explain.

7. Have there been any problems? If so, please explain. (Students wanting to request a change of academic adviser should contact Dean Jarman.)
