Hello,

We need your assistance! The Communication Department at the University of California, Davis is conducting survey research on Muslim Americans social networks, interpersonal relationships, and use of the website Facebook.

We will be running our survey in May and June.

We are offering over $500 in prizes (either ipods, cash or gifts) in a lottery for participants.

Instructions:

Interested individuals should click the link and join the group. We will then notify the group members when the survey starts. (It will only take two minutes to register, and the survey will only take 20 minutes).

This is the Facebook group link: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=658576606#/group.php?gid=73678992786

Thank you for taking the time to read about our research, we look forward to hearing from you!
