The College and Beyond II (CBII) Alumni Survey Open Response Study contains two open-response variables extracted from the CBII Alumni Survey. The 'essay' variable details an important undergraduate experience described by the respondent and ways it has contributed to the respondent's life today. The 'final' variable contains any other information the respondent wanted to write about. The Open Response Study data can be linked with other CBII student-level data using the id_person variable.

Content warning: Users should be aware that some responses cover sensitive topics such as experiences of discrimination, sexual assault, suicidal ideation, and substance misuse. Respondents' experiences of discrimination include incidents of hate speech and the use of racial slurs. ICPSR has chosen to preserve the data as it was collected, without masking these words, and is not condoning their use.
