[Contrib: Evaluation System] how is the hierarchy supposed to work?

We have been using hierarchy for awhile now.  I have not had the time to sit down and document the hierarchy piece, but we do use it to set up the distribution of our course evaluations at the end of the semester.  We distribute university and college level items via one template.

On the Getting Started page on Confluence, there are links to see a picture of what our hierarchy and template looked like in Fall 2008.  http://confluence.sakaiproject.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=35029012

I don't know if that helps or not.  I should try to put up more recent screenshots since the screens do look  a little different now.

At our last project call, I did volunteer to set up a webinar to go over how we use the tool at Maryland so that people could learn more.  I have not had a chance to schedule that yet but will look to do that soon.
