*****************************************************************************

I have been asked to develop a method to track visitor and participant
demographics such as age, ethnicity and income level for grant proposals
and sponsorship requests. I thought I remembered a previous discussion
on this listserv but checked the archives and didn't find anything. I
know that I can find general data for school group visitors on our state
superintendent of public instruction's web site. But I was hoping others
would share how this information is gathered for visitors and other
program participants at their institutions. If you do not collect this
data, please let me know why. Was it a privacy issue, too big of a
challenge or some other reason.
Thank you for help,
Karen
