RARG:2008 ResNet Survey:Introduction
From ResNetWiki
The ResNet Applied Research Working Group is conducting this survey to obtain baseline information regarding residential computer network support groups, their responsibilities, issues they address, and their organizational structure.
This is the first comprehensive survey to specifically seek information from the perspective of those supporting higher education residential computer networks. We anticipate that the results of the survey will provide those who manage ResNet programs with strategic information to assess their program and plan initiatives. Please assist us and the ResNet and higher education communities by responding to this survey and answering the following questions to the best of your knowledge. We encourage you to contact others at your institution to assist with questions for which you do not have or may not know the answer.
Please note that you will be required to supply your name, e-mail address, and institution. This is only to ensure the accuracy and validity of the survey. Your name and e-mail address will not be released or in any way linked to survey data in public presentations or releases.

Survey organization
The survey is divided into 6 sections. The number of questions per page and per section will vary depending on your answers. Questions marked with an * require a response. We estimate that you will need approximately 30-60 minutes to complete the survey. However, the exact amount of time will vary depending on your responses and the length of your open ended responses.
Completion deadline
We ask that you complete the survey by March 31.
Stopping and restarting the survey
You can stop at any point and return to the survey at a later time. To do this you must, however, complete the entire survey using the same computer (the survey tool uses cookies to track your progress through the survey). To return for any reason:
- Click on the URL that was included in the e-mail you received or on the ResNet Symposium web site. You will return to the page where you left off.
- You can go back and forward through the survey to answer any questions you did not complete previously, or to change your responses.
- Even if you click on the "Done" button, you can return to the survey to edit your responses as long as you are using the same computer.
Upon successful completion of the survey, you will be entered into a drawing where two (2) survey respondents will each receive $100 off registration to the ResNet Symposium2005 at Georgia Tech.
Results
Results will be presented at the ResNet Symposium 2005 in June and will be available on the ResNet Symposium web site after July 1. The results will be presented in only an aggregate form and responses will not be identifiable by institution or survey responder.
