Students Weston Catron and Nick Holt are making plans to change the chaos with a new mobile device app that aims to improve student access to course syllabi, academic calendars, Outlook email, and other university resources, consolidating data and resources into a single tool.

Students at Furman are constantly running technological errands, making course adjustments or checking on their meal plan points by accessing information scattered across multiple university resources. But students Weston Catron and Nick Holt are making plans to change the chaos with a new mobile device app that aims to improve student access to course syllabi, academic calendars, Outlook email, and other university resources, consolidating data and resources into a single tool.

Furman’s Chief of Police Tom Saccenti indicated that emergency response may be improving after the annexation of Furman into Traveler’s Rest, and he expressed his hope that the department’s introduction of a new campus safety smartphone app in the next few weeks would further improve student safety.
