Lunchtime Lecture with John Della Volpe

March 11, 2016, 12:00 PM

John Della Volpe, is director of polling at the  Institute of Politics at Harvard University. Each semester, he leads a public opinion survey group of students who develop, field and report on the attitudes of young Americans (Millennial Generation) toward politics and public service. Since 2000, the IOP survey has tracked pre- and post-9/11 attitudes; accurately predicted youth turnout since; marked the generational shift in attitudes toward foreign policy; and provided insight into the ways in which Millennials communicate and form opinions.

John was honored to receive an Eisenhower Fellowship (China, Korea) in 2008 and selected as a delegate to the U.S.-Russia Bilateral Presidential Commission on Media in 2011. In addition, John is Founder and CEO of SocialSphere, Inc. a big data and social media analytics company located in Harvard Square, Cambridge. His lecture will serve as the capstone session to the Goldfarb Center’s Election Data Day. For more information or to sign up to participate, please click here >>>
