2014 Spring Business Horizons - Jan 30

SENIORS, we need your help in taking the 15-minute BusinessWeek Survey in order to qualify for their annual rankings. See the email we received from BusinessWeek on Friday:

I'm writing to let you know that as of now, your students' response rate to the Businessweek undergrad student survey is between 11% and 15%, which is too low (30% required) for inclusion in our undergrad rankings. There is still plenty of time. You can encourage your students to participate by directing them to https://survey.businessweek.com, where they can take the survey and recover their password if they lost it or can't find the original email. We will also be doing a blast email to all the undergrads in our survey universe in the next couple of days; we'll do another before the survey closes Jan 22.

Thanks for taking the time to complete the survey.
