What's Possible with Analytics? 90 percent of our community believes analytics will be more important in 2 years. Presidents, provosts, trustees, students and the federal government are looking to analytics as a solution for complex problems. If you haven't already become involved with analytics, it may soon be knocking at your door. To bring the community together on this topic, EDUCAUSE will hold an Analytics Sprint, July 24–26.
