Answer a survey, get free pizza!

Come to the computer lab to fill out a survey and give your honest feedback about Ridgewater. Come and go as you please and take as long as you need to complete the survey. In return, you’ll get free pizza for lunch!

How is this different from the “Student Open Forum” events? The Student Satisfaction Survey will be held in a computer lab where students can fill out the online survey at their own pace. The Student Open Forums are more of a verbal interview format.
