We are reviewing support for our graduate students and would like to know
what is the mix of support for graduate students at other institutions.
Your response to the following will be highly appreciated:

What percentage of graduate students at your university/college are:

1) funded by teaching assistantships (university funds)
and
2) funded by research assistantships (sponsored projects).

Both the percentages and the actual numbers would be appreciated.

On request, a summary of the responses will be made available to all those
who are interested. Please send reply privately if you do not want your
information going to the entire list.
