Great idea! I'd like to add another question... How many programs will offer both the MOT and OTD entry level for students to choose from?

Good afternoon everyone.

Is anyone collecting data during this time of transition regarding the following:

1.       How many MOT programs did not begin the transition to OTD and waited for the RA vote?

2.       How many MOT programs began the transition process and will withdraw applications voluntarily?

3.       How many MOT programs began the transition process and will withdraw applications by direction of their university/college?

4.       If an MOT program withdrew voluntarily or by direction of their university, did you reduce faculty?

5.       How much funding did your school invest in the transition process?

6.       How many personnel hours did your program invest in the transition process?

7.       How many MOT programs are proceeding with the transition to OTD?

If no one is collecting the data, should we collect this data?  Should we aggregate the results in some meaningful way?  Maybe none of the questions above are applicable.  I just remember in Louisville how many program directors were upset about the output of resources for something they were told was required.  Thoughts?
