# Which school has the most Portland startup cred?

So, I just wrote about Reed Start Up Lab. And I mentioned that Portland startups [Urban Airship](http://urbanairship.com "Urban Airship"), [Puppet Labs](http://puppetlabs.com "Puppet Labs"), [AppFog](http://appfog.com "AppFog"), [LuckySort](http://luckysort.com/ "LuckySort"), and [Stayhound](http://stayhound.com "Stayhound") all have Reedies as founders.

But are they the leading school?

I know Lewis & Clark has Geoloqi. And OSU and PSU can also lay claim to Urban Airship. But what other Oregon schools have had a helping hand in building the Portland startup scene?

Well, let’s run a little poll to find out. And this is open to more than just founders. Even if you just went to one of these schools briefly. Not graduated, mind you. Just attended. (And yes, you can choose more than one.)

Please chime in. And let’s see which school has the most Portland startup cred.
