     To Whom This May Concern: I am a graduate occupational therapy student at Quinnipiac University in Hamden, CT. For my graduate thesis I am doing a research project with the aim of creating an intervention for college students on the autism spectrum. Part of my research is to identify academic and social situations that are particularly difficult or stressful for this population in college. I am contacting you to see if you are in contact with students on the autism spectrum who would be willing to complete a short online survey about difficult "typical college" situations. The survey is also targeted to parents of these students, professionals working with students as well as the student themselves. If you would be able to participate in a short (10-15 minutes to complete) online survey occurring over the next few weeks or would be able to contact students who would be willing please access the survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=oMXWEmkIB93wnEvD4z15Gg_3d_3d To maintain confidentiality I will not be emailing directly to any of the students. The online link to the survey is provided to you (or another contact you provide me) and then from there dispersed to the appropriate students, parents, professors or therapists. I have IRB approval and can provide more information if you so wish. Please contact me with any additional questions, comments or concerns. If you are unable to participate thank you for taking the time to read this e-mail and please forward it along to anyone else you are in contact with who may be interested. Again the survey can be accessed at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=oMXWEmkIB93wnEvD4z15Gg_3d_3d until April 20, 2009. Thank you very much.
