Bonner Alumni Network Planning Survey

Welcome, Bonner Alumni! Thank you for your interest in participating in this survey. As we enter our 20th anniversary year, we are looking (finally!) to establish a vibrant Bonner alumni network. We will never contact you for fundraising purposes, but do want to find ways to invite you to alumni events and invite you to connect with one another and to support current and prospective Bonners, both at your alma mater and beyond.

This survey is designed to help us plan the activities of the Bonner Alumni Network, as well as to recruit some of you to serve an Alumni Advisory Committee.

In the coming weeks you'll receive another email requesting you to complete a more formal Bonner Alumni Survey that will ask a bunch of questions about what you've been up to since you graduated. That survey will complement the Student Impact Survey you may have been asked to fill out while you were a student.

Meanwhile, please fill out this short survey and then be sure to check out the Bonner Alumni site on our Bonner Network Wiki at http://bonnernetwork.pbworks.com/Bonner-Alumni-Network for more information on future alumni programming.
