On this week’s episode of Poll Hub, Americans are apprehensive about the state of the nation. We break down the latest Marist Poll America Now: National Outlook Index and discuss the indicators driving the mood of Americans.

Then, it’s back to school season. But, school districts across the nation are still assessing different models to adapt to this pandemic era. What do parents want? We dig into the latest data.

And, don’t forget to check out our series of free, short online courses. It’s called The Marist Poll Academy.

About Poll Hub

Poll Hub goes behind the science to explain how polling works, what polls really show, and what the numbers really mean. Poll Hub is produced by the Marist College Institute for Public Opinion, home of America’s leading independent college public opinion poll, The Marist Poll. Lee Miringoff (Director of The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion), Barbara Carvalho (Director of the Marist Poll), and Jay DeDapper (Director of Innovation at the Marist Poll) dig deep to give you a look at the inner workings of polls and what they tell us about our world, our country, and ourselves.
