Conclusion

• After completing the survey, our group came to the conclusion that a centralized, ASU based dating service would be beneficial to ASU students.

Recommendation

• RECOMMENDATION: After reviewing the data, we recommend that ASU begin an online dating website that allows users to sign up and be matched with a suitable person for a brief on campus date. The service would ideally allow users to prescreen their matches, and would allow dates to occur in public places
