SURVEY
Help Us Refine the Vendor Listings

The lists of vendors at www.collegebuys.org include an alphabetical list of vendors, and also lists by "academic areas." How useful are the lists by academic areas?

The vendor lists by academic categories are very helpful to me. Definately keep them.

They're not that helpful to me, but they may be for others. Keep them, I guess.

I don't know--I'm neutral on it.

Not very useful--drop them as links, but use them with a search tool.

They're of no use to me or anyone. Simplify the site and use the alphabetical list only.

I've got a better idea that I'll e-mail to editor@collegebuys.org
