Eighty-nine percent of readers who re-sponded to a recent survey of Spectrum said they find the newsletter either extremely or somewhat informative, and 77 percent said it is either extremely or somewhat useful as a source of University of Missouri news and information.
Sixty-one percent of respondents said they are either extremely interested or somewhat interested in receiving Spectrum via e-mail, and 62 percent said that if Spectrum is distributed electronically they would not need a printed copy.
However, only 4 percent said they currently read Spectrum online, which is posted on the UM Web site at www.umsystem.edu. The majority of respondents—81 percent—said they are pleased with the number of issues they receive, and 97 percent said they read either every issue or most issues.
University Communications, which writes and edits Spectrum, will discuss any upcoming changes to the newsletter.
More than 800 Spectrum surveys were received from staff, faculty and retirees on all four campuses.
Christine Burge in the department of Dental Instruction at the University of Missouri-Kansas City is the winner of the $50 campus bookstore gift certificate for completing the survey.
