Hello,
In preparation for the Fall quarter Student Feedback Forms, please let me know if your division has added, changed, or removed any courses or departments by reviewing the attached Hierarchy Mapper.
Student Feedback Forms will be sent to students 7 days prior to the the last day of instruction. This varies depending on the class dates. Results will be available for CES Administrators the day after evaluations end. For instructions on how to access results, please view Course Evaluations & Surveys (CES) for CES Administrators. Results will be available for instructors the day after grades are due. Instructions are located at Course Evaluations & Surveys (CES) for Instructors.
Thank you,
