very poor, or indicate that you lack sufficient information to rate him. Then, if you have any
general or specific comments about any of these specific dimensions of the Dean's performance,
or his performance generally, please type your comments anonymously on one sheet of paper
and enclose it with the questionnaire. These comments are especially important as a way of
