Your Chance to Influence Economics Courses in the Future

Hello -

 According to reports from the campus administrators, to date only 39% of students enrolled in economics classes have submitted online course evaluations. Frankly, that's pathetic. We can do better than that.

As Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Economics Department, I read each and every comment students make about economics courses in the online course evaluation system, and I help instructors utilize your feedback to improve courses. Instructors who exhibit a pattern of very low feedback over four semesters are not invited back to teach here.

Please log into www.CourseEvalUM.umd.edu BEFORE the end of Friday and evaluate your courses. Your action will have positive externalities. :)

Regards,
Cindy Clement, Ph.D.
