Hi, <<First Name>>!
Welcome to the EA DC Newsletter!

The EA Survey provides valuable information about the EA community and how it is changing over time. Every year, the survey is used to inform the decisions of a number of different EA organizations, including EA DC.
This is one of the best ways to have your voice heard and to help improve the EA community, both today and into the future.
The survey should take 10 minutes or less to complete. |
