2008 CMSA CONVENTION SURVEY
Welcome to the CMSA Convention Feedback Survey!
If you attended, We need your feedback on how things went! If you didn’t attend, your suggestions for future conventions are still welcome.
Please select a response from each drop-down box and please make any and all comments you'd like.
This survey is more detailed than the one handed out at the Convention, so feel free to do this one even if you sent in the other form.
At the bottom will be a place for your email (if you'd like us to get in touch with you), otherwise your comments are anonymous.
Thanks! - CMSA
