Feedback Form

We have an anonymous feedback form here for the rest of the semester. It includes a wide range of questions, all of which are optional, so feel free to give feedback on anything you’d like. As stated, all questions are optional, but it would be more helpful if you could include at least a few sentences in the free response questions.
