FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

This is now: Survey: Love Us or Hate Us?

Although Campus Philly's website brings you awesome articles, exciting events, discount listings, and internship info, we know we can do an even better job. That's why we're in the process of developing a whole new site—and one of our first orders of business is getting your opinion. We want to know what you love and hate about campusphilly.org, what new features you'd like to see, and what elements should go.

Help us redesign the best website for you. We've created a survey that should take about five to ten minutes to complete. Everyone who completes the survey will be entered into a drawing to win a $200 iTunes voucher, so there's no excuse not to fill it out!

Take the survey here.
