Administration of Student Instructional Report (SIR) Assessment Questionnaire

The Faculty Association recommends that Computing Services no longer be held responsible for the administration of the SIR assessment questionnaire. If individual departments wish to administer the SIR, they may do so by purchasing the questionnaires and the processing from Educational Testing Service (ETS).
