The NSSE survey began in 1999-2000, and 6 million students at 1,600 colleges have since participated. 色情视频 has participated previously in 2004, 2009 and 2015.
鈥淪tudents will be helping the university identify how to improve the Aztec experience,鈥 said Christy Samarkos, interim vice president for Student Affairs. The division is organizing 色情视频鈥檚 participation in the survey.
Faculty and staff will analyze student responses on classroom experience and high-impact practices to make changes and help develop a deeper and richer education. The national nature of the survey also allows 色情视频 to compare its results with those of universities across the country.

Many faculty members in largely freshmen and senior classes have agreed to allow a short presentation on NSSE, and others are showing PowerPoint slide reminders. A short video for classrooms will be available soon. Other reminders for students have popped up on social media, WebPortal, computer lab log-in pages, posters, fliers and buttons.
The NSSE survey consists of 40 questions and takes about 15 minutes. Students can take the survey on their cell phones, tablets or computers and can pause as necessary and return later to the point they left the survey.
Also, students who complete the survey will be automatically entered in weekly opportunity drawings and also in a grand prize opportunity drawing at the end of the survey window. The weekly opportunity drawings feature $50 Visa gift cards, while the grand prize opportunity drawing features three Aztec Shops gift cards to buy textbooks at the Bookstore (for freshmen), three sets of graduation regalia (for seniors), and one Nintendo Switch.
