Feb. 17, you should have received an email invitation to complete the University-wide online survey from the American College Health Association titled "Survey Inside: National College Health Assessment." It is important to ensure that the voices of CLS students are well represented so we ask that you complete the survey as soon as possible. Your participation is voluntary and your responses will be kept strictly confidential. Everyone who completes the survey will be included in the drawing for daily prizes and a final drawing to win a $100 gift card (one winner per school!).
