The purpose of this assessment is to help you identify weakness in your chapter's academic program. To use the assessment tool, everyone in the chapter will need to complete the following survey, answering all questions based on this scale:
* Always = 5 points
* Frequently = 4 points
* Occasionally = 3 points
* Rarely = 2 points
* Never = 0 points
Then, collect the surveys from each chapter member and compile the results by adding together the scores for each question. Once you have the totals for each question, sort the results from highest total score to lowest total score. Low scores on a question indicate weaknesses in the chapter's scholarship program. Use the assessment tool again at a later date to see if the chapter has improved.
