Coronavirus Higher Education Industry Briefings

We put our social listening skills to work for our higher education community at the start of the pandemic. No strings attached; these resources are free for your use.

The Campus Sonar team analyzed 10 weeks of online conversations about coronavirus and higher education at the start of the pandemic to determine conversation volume, topics, and relevant audience segmentation. Over the weeks, we provided an analysis of the conversation via a blog post and slide deck that presents data highlights and a summary, producing 15 Briefings in total. Our goal was for you to use these free resources to inform your planning and share with your campus teams and constituents.

You can find previous insights from Campus Sonar and the team at #COVID19HEBriefing on Twitter, or share your own as you use the Briefings. If they've helped your campus, we'd love to hear about it, so be sure to tag us, too (@CampusSonar).
