We want to try to coordinate the Orientation Week survey with the Fall Referendum. We will distribute the survey to first year students who participated, or chose not to participate in, faculty-run orientation and/or FYNIRS orientation and their leaders. An incentive will need to be negotiated; however, it is likely to be a discount from an AMS service, similar to the current incentive offered to vote.
We will compile the results into a report and use it to improve the work done by the Orientation Roundtable Coordinator. Furthermore, we will disseminate the information to the faculty societies and work with them to improve faculty specific orientation weeks. Ideally bench marks will be created and this will become an annual survey. It is easy to simply say that Frosh Week needs to change, but without hearing from the people who are directly affected by it or who chose not to be, we cannot assume that we have the answers.
