Zusammenfassung:Responses to a questionnaire submitted in 1986 to essentially all graduates of the Department of Meteorology, University of Wisconsin-Madison from 1970 to 1986 are summarized. The questionnaire focused on synoptic-meteorology education, its definition, and relevance. The survey documents a broad-based support and need for a large number of specific areas considered a part of current-day synoptic meteorology. The results affirm the relevance of synoptic meteorology and define important components for an educational program in this subject.
