I like the second question, but it should probably be turned into two separate questions. (Jen)
Choice of campus position
Lindsay B.
What is your graduate assistantship?
How would you describe your position?
What I want to look at is how the graduate students view themselves in their position - i.e. does the way they describe their position indicate a sense of pride in their work, or do they play down the language as though their paid work is less important than their course work? This could show us how high the morale is in positions that could be grouped in student activities, residential life, union board, career services, etc.
How the office views/works with students
Office space in comparison to full-time, professional staff

What do you all think?
I like this question, but it seems to be more focused on the overall program, while our survey is focused on their GA workplace. (Diana)

F. Extremely NOT Important
(is this question misleading/double-edged because I put both in there? How do you feel about the scale?)
I think perhaps they shouldn't be lumped together. There could be students who care a lot more about the salary than the benefits, and vice versa. Could it be split into two questions? (Jen)
In my graduate assistantship, the following benefits are offered:

I like the second question looking at outside of the office work interactions. You could use another 5 point Likert Scale on frequency of contact. "How frequent do you meet with your coworkers outside of the workplace?" (Landon)

how often they collaborate with eachother and mingle (i.e. department meetings, lunch together, events outside of work, etc.)...(this is more of social question and development friendships beyond the experiences they share at work).
What do you all think between these two? Or do you have a different approach to the question about community?
