Reflections in the Glass: your opinion about antiquities

Are you concerned about cultural heritage issues? Are you aware of these issues? Do you hold museums accountable for their acquisition policies?

I have received approval from the University Committee on Activities Involving Human Subjects to distribute a unique survey for research for my Master’s thesis. The survey should take less than 15 minutes and is completely anonymous. Your participation could affect the understanding of public perceptions of museum collecting practices and the display of antiquities.

Please take your time to answer each question honestly and thoughtfully.
Take the survey!
The results will be posted on this web blog or possibly published as an article at a later date.

If you have any questions or would like to know more, please feel free to e-mail Cherkea_Howery@yahoo.com
Thank you for your participation and remember your opinion matters!

A Popular Survey!

After almost a month, my survey is still going strong and receiving daily hits. I am almost at 400 respondents thanks to the many interested parties who have spread the word through listserves and those kind enough to post it on their blogs!
