And that's the amazing thing. Even if this questionnaire WASN'T
sanctioned by the college, what POSSIBLE harm could it do if you don't
use your real name and address? Many don't. I don't think it's a
particularly effective way of harvesting E-mail addresses so she can
post a bucketful of spam either, so MAYBE she's just doing the thing
from her home 'puter and the college isn't involved AT THIS TIME.

I don't dispute that having a college E-mail address would be more
"normal" (E-mail, normal?? :-) but I don't see NOT having one as an
indicator that not everything in the garden is rosy.

I HOPE she's for real, and if she's not, then she's a sick sod and needs
more help than a questionnaire will provide.
