We have built the largest database of college student opinion with over 700K student panelists from 1500 universities in all 50 states, and we use our student panel to help our clients better understand the college demographic. Our ambition is to become a unique part of the global internet infrastructure - like Google for search, Facebook for social, Amazon for retail, we want it to be Pulse for public opinion.
