<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Hello
Graduate Student. I am writing to ask you to answer a few brief questions
about the university. Your answers to the questions will be used to help
the university shape a Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP). Without boring you
with too many details the goal of the QEP is to evaluate what the university
does well and what it can improve. And then target on of those topics
with the goal of improving performance in that area and hopefully improving the
university as a whole. The QEP is one portion of the requirement for accreditation
and the university is using it as a genuine vehicle for improvement. To
this point we have a lot of feedback from undergraduates, but very little
information from graduate students. It seems likely that your experience
with the university is different from that of an undergraduate and we want to
hear from you. Your answers need not be lengthy. If you are willing
to respond, you can send your email response to me at <a
href="mailto:Raymond_green@tamu-commerce.edu">Raymond_green@tamu-commerce.edu</a>.
Before passing your response on to the person who will collate and
summarize all the responses I will remove any identifying material. Let
me know if you have any questions and I thank you in advance for your help.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
