Have Your Say: Learning and Tutoring Center Spring 2010 Survey

In 1993, Sadie and Bessie Delany, two black women elders, published a bestselling memoir titled Having Our Say. In it, the Delany sisters spoke about their ancestry, childhoods, careers, values and visions. For the pair of one-hundred-someting-year-old sisters, speaking up and sharing their insights and opinions was a way that they decided to be of service to others. “If it helps one person, then it’s worth doing,” was, they said, one of the Delany family philosophies that inspired the writing of their book.

The example of the Delany sisters teaches us that in social interactions of all types, feedback is valuable. Think about it. A compliment unshared cannot encourage. Constructive critique left unspoken doesn’t inspire change. Communication works two ways, benefitting both the speaker and the listener.

From April 12 to April 26 you, the students of GPC, will get the chance to have your say about our Learning and Tutoring Center services. It will be your opportunity to compliment, complain or comment about the quality of what we do and how we do it. What you share will give us information that will help us make our services more responsive and relevant to your needs.
