2022 Questionnaire
The 2022 draft questionnaire incorporates several new important substantive areas, including questions to garner more insight on alumni experiences in terms of their sense of belonging and inclusion during their educational experience, examining the degree to which they felt respected, valued, and supported by faculty, peers, and others during their training and study.
The demographic questions have also been expanded to include more questions about how a person identifies themselves that aim to provide the means to examine alumni responses with greater granularity by how alumni identify themselves.
Additionally, questions about the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic and implications for training, education, and employment have been developed. In particular, the questions seek to garner alumni perspectives on shifts in their work environments and related shifts in needed skills and opportunities for sustaining creative lives and work in the future.
“The past year or so has brought some amazing challenges, changes, and hardship to our field and the creative artists working therein. Yet every early report that reflected this hardship made clear how many more questions than answers we have. With such a dynamic world, and rapidly shifting priorities, the need for new info and insight about our alumni is greater than ever before. We have so much to learn about their current and emerging conditions and how we can better support them… Participating in the new iteration of the SNAAP survey is vitally important, for us to be able to draw a through-line and connect past results to today in order to see the changing lives and challenges.”
— Douglas Noonan, Paul H. O’Neill Professor of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University — Purdue University Indianapolis
