General Survey Fall 2011 Analysis

Key takeaways

• Over 160 answers collected in a week.
• Over 70% of the students get most of their information from the weekly mass email
• Over 2/3 of the respondents agree that the $20 levy to the MUS is being well spent
• Student involvement
  • 36% of respondents are members of 2 or more clubs/committees
  • Overall, only 30% of respondents were not currently a member of any clubs/committees
  • Low involvement of U0s and U1s (35% and 40% uninvolved, respectively)
• U0s most wanted to be surveyed on case competitions (coming soon!)
• U1s most wanted to be surveyed on Mass Tutorials
• U1s were the most likely to be looking forward to Carnival (approx 69% of the respondents... coincidence?)

MUS initiatives

• The low first year student involvement issue is currently being tackled by the implementation of the First Year Street Team (FYST).
• One of the respondents answered one question by “Don’t know. Does it even matter what I say?” The role of the Survey Task Force is to make sure that your voice is heard by the MUS.
• We will be targeting our survey marketing campaign using the information gained by this survey in order to achieve a more representative cross-section of students for future surveys.
