COGS 108 Student Survey (SS1 2023)
This survey is used to help me get to know you a bit better! Thanks in advance for your participation!
If you complete by Friday of week 1 at 11:59 PM, there is an opportunity for a little bit of extra credit.
This will ask some questions about your backgrounds (major type thing), and also your interests as well as when office hours would be useful for you. All responses will be anonymized if they are presented in class. The reason we are gathering your PID is for the extra credit -
if you complete this form it will count toward your participation grade/extra credit.
Note: You are not required to answer any questions that make you uncomfortable. We require name/email/pid to associate with you so we can provide your extra credit.

Use the map below to answer this question. During this quarter, what time zone are you in? (For example, if you are in San Diego, your answer would be -7. If you are in UTC, respond with 0)
*
Your answer
Yes the map below looks wrong for SD, but trust me we are UTC-7 during DST, note the red numbers match the red CA coast. The reason the longitude shadow isn't over SD is because Pacific DST is very much shifted from solar noon.
