We’ve published our findings in a new report, CorpU: Researching Corporate Influence on College and University Boards, as well as an accompanying list in LittleSis where you can explore relationships between corporations and board members, and a data table.

If you head on over to the the list in LittleSis and click on the “Interlocks” tab, you can see which corporations have the highest number of board members in common. Not surprisingly, banking behemoth and fossil financier, Goldman Sachs, tops the list. Have additional information to add about board members? Add your own research to the LittleSis database!

We hope this report can help campus organizers and activists take on university power and gain a better understanding of the presence and influence of corporate power on their campuses.

If you’d like to learn how to research board members at your university, sign up for our free monthly training series, Research Tools for Organizers, where we’ll give you the skills to do your own power research.

Onward,
