Students willing to participate on a brief survey may get an iPad 2 and iTunes gift cards for their troubles. A student survey is being conducted until mid-June to ascertain student satisfaction of several services, programs and departments. The survey is required by the college’s accreditation body and is part of SWC’s effort to get off probation.

Responses will remain confidential and will not be presented as individual answers. Responses will be combined and tallied before they are released to the public.

Surveys are being distributed via SWC’s global e-mail, at computer kiosks in satellite campuses, at the Cesar Chavez building, cafeteria, bookstore, the Student Activities Center and the SWC website. Services being evaluated are maintenance, scholarships, cashiers, food services and many more.
