我是一个访问学者，也需要参加人口普查么？是的!
一位非裔美国女人急促地敲门，(我遇到都是这样的敲门方法)，透过窗户看了看，是挂牌子的，应该不是坏人，就开门了。
再一看，那牌子是写着census字样的。年初就听说要人口普查这事，看来是真得要落实了。
要了我的姓名，电话，出生年月，就好了。
之后，给我留下一张information sheet.

后来在群里看到有的同学门口晒出了人口普查的表格，这是人口普查员入户普查时未见主人，留下的表格。意思是可以到网上去填写。
第二天又有一位非裔美国女人来敲门，是同样的事，我说已经普查过了。遂离去。顺便夸了夸她的漂亮的标识着census的工作挎包，对方当然高兴。
补：
8.17
晚上出去散步，回来发现门上夹了一张单子，notice of visit.
给定了census ID,用这个登录就可以线上操作。
抱着试试的心情，结果发现线上只有住址信息，其他全无。之前询问过我的电话，出生年月等全得重新填写一遍了，有点奇怪!

补：校长还为此写了如下公开信：
Dear Trojans,
Every 10 years, citizens of the United States have the opportunity to "stand up and be counted" by completing the Census form. The stakes are high, as Census data are used to allocate federal funding for education, housing assistance, health care, and infrastructure development.
Census figures are also used when it comes time to allocate the 435 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. States showing population growth get more seats—and greater representation—than states showing population losses.
You have until October 31 to complete the Census, either by traditional paper form, by telephone at (844) 330-2020, or online at www.my2020Census.gov. It takes less than 10 minutes to complete the form, so please join me in doing our civic duty together.
Sincerely,
