Vanderbilt’s Impact on Your District
Vanderbilt University's Division of Government and Community Relations and Office of Data and Strategic Analytics compiled the FY 2022 District Impact Report, which is an interactive dashboard that showcases the university’s economic, social and cultural contributions to communities in each of Tennessee’s nine congressional districts. While the data is not exhaustive, the aim is to highlight the significant relationship between Vanderbilt and the state, demonstrating how Vanderbilt is making a difference in each district through various organizations and departments.
