2005 Member Survey of the
ACS Georgia Local Section (ACS-GLS)

The survey closed on December 15, 2005

Preliminary demographics of the survey participants:

The survey had a higher level or participation from our members than this past year's officer election.
Almost one-fourth of the respondents volunteered to serve our section, and there was a good mix of responses from various demographic groups.
The overall pool included about 20% younger chemists, 46% mid-career chemists, and 34% late career chemists.
Almost 58% of participants had an industry-government lab-university research institute connection, 36% were in the students-faculty-teachers sample group, and 6% were unclassified.
Only 55% had not attended a Section meeting for three years, but 50% had attended a Section special event like a regional ACS meeting or mini-symposium.

Survey analysis will be posted here and printed in the Filter Press in Spring 2006!
