Ongoing Work @ Purdue
• Individual companies OWN the data they generate
• “The Internet” is (largely) public domain And it’s a Big Data playground

Disclaimer
• All data displayed is preliminary in nature Please do not cite; demonstration purposes only
• Significant investment in “tuning” each topic – and -University, although continued efforts are needed

How WE use social media data• Valentine’s/Galentine’s Day = proof of concept
• #DisneyWorld
• #SeaWorld
• #Eggs
• #Agribusiness
• #Mosquitoes Epidemiology collaborations Goefencing! Miami ? Florida ?
• #Universities … natural brand mgt/public perceptions extension
You can start crossing into a gray area of

Seek to Learn …• What is the net sentiment?
Positive minus negative posts
• What drives sentiment? Does it change across Universities? Does it change over time? Can we (or are we) impacting sentiment?
• Fundamentally, what is our “actual presence” on the Internet?

In Summary• Net Sentiment Drivers Make sense but … not always predictable
• Variable sentiment AND drivers across Universities Important for brand and perceptions
management
• To be built upon … Geofencing – Where? Given the importance of sports for some
Universities – where is the sentiment coming from physically?
