<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">We have actually never done the FSSE at St. Mary's before. We have particiapted in both the COACHE and the Chronicle Best Colleges surveys. This question arose when I went to register for the NSSE and went to confirm participation only in this. The next logical question that came up was if COPLAC institutions participated in this, and I was unsure as I had not heard much about it on the listserv and thought the group might have some insights about both participation and the usefulness. <br>
