Kinda cool to dive into the data.

Biggest takeaway: ISU students listen to about twice as much country as the average college student. No surprise there.

ISU is also the school with the highest "Valence" rating in the nation on Spotify. We listen to positive-sounding music more than any other school.

Valence: Describes the musical positiveness conveyed by a track. Tracks with high valence sound more positive (e.g., happy, cheerful, euphoric), while tracks with low valence sound more negative (e.g. sad, depressed, angry).
