UUX Website Rewrite Update

The Website Rewrite Team has been working on the results of the survey about how people use the STC website. You can view a summary of the results here: https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AUhTYORaH-ynZGM4cndweHZfOGM3ZmNqcmZ3&hl=en&authkey=CKSpr4oL

After reviewing the results, Kristi Leach realized that we needed a little more detailed information to really nail down the roles that were developed from the first survey.

Please click on the following link to answer a very short, two question survey: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/398QNLX

Thanks for your help. Your participation will help us to design a website that works for everyone!
