    When admissions officers refer to the information they collect as “big data,” I think they are mistaken. Big Data refers to massive amounts of data that are so complex and so detailed that the information can’t be analyzed in a meaningful way by tools like CRMs.

    Companies like Amazon, with their millions of products and transactions each day, have Big Data. Admissions officers aren’t dealing with Big Data…yet.
