Research Strategies
Lead Research Coordinators are currently gathering, analyzing and reporting Census Bureau information for the Campus District. Including: 1. Race 2. Income 3. Education 4. Housing 5. Age
Demographic Information:
Social Aspects:Through the use of interviews we are able to discover social aspects of the District. The students have over 50 completed interviews with results in progress.
Questions on the interview included:
A.) What activities are available? Which ones do you participate in?
B.) How do you get around? Why?
C.) Are there places you avoid in your neighborhood? Why?
D.) Do you live here by choice or because you have to?
Business Lists:We are creating surveys for employees of the institutions, and interviews for small business owners.
The surveys and interviews will help us to understand more about the employees and small business owners.
