The State of Love

As Valentine's Day draws ever-closer and months in isolation grow longer, our thoughts often turn to relationships. Are certain schools 'better' or 'worse' to be in a relationship in? What are our peers up to? Datamatch gathered responses from over 2,400 students to judge the State of Love at colleges around the nation and show you how other students are navigating love, relationships, and more both pre-COVID and after.

Our analysis is split into 5 sections, covering topics from 'hook-up culture' to COVID to self-perception and self-worth. We plan on releasing sections periodically over the next month in the lead-up to Valentine's Day and the Datamatch launch - so bookmark this page! Our first section explores 'hook-ups', demographics, and entering and leaving relationships.

This project is still in progress! Check back in soon and we might have added more content.
