Modern Think Survey

Human Resources has asked for our assistance to get the word out about the Chronicle of Higher Education’s Great Colleges to Work For Survey. Only 11% of SUNY Cobleskill faculty and staff completed the survey last week, and we still have 89% to go in order to have full participation. HR would like to see strong participation to yield quality empirical data on what the College does well and where it might improve.

You should have received an email from ModernThink, the survey provider, last Monday.  SUNY Cobleskill would like to be recognized as a great college, either this year or at some point in time in the future.  In order to become a great college, we need to understand what we do well and where we can improve.  The survey is a great way to let administration know your opinion in a confidential, anonymous fashion.  The data is tabulated by the survey provider, ModernThink, so results cannot be tracked back to any one individual

Thanks for your consideration!
