We Asked, You Answered |
Thank you to all of those who participated in our March Poll. The winner of the March raffle who will be receiving the DVD set is Jill Dunn. Congratulations!
Last month we asked you, our readers, "When do you like to attend 2-hour lectures or scientific programs?" Friday afternoon, Friday night, or Saturday morning
We asked and you answered. A whopping 65% of respondents indicated they prefer to attend 2-hour lectures or scientific programs on Saturday mornings. The second place time slot was Friday evenings with 20% and Friday afternoons took last place with a vote of 15%. This poll was taken to assist the NC Psychoanalytic Society plan for future events. We are excited to be able to support a sister organization in gathering this information! |
