So, What Exactly is Localist?

Put yourself in the shoes of an incoming freshman at a university. How do you find out what's happening on campus? Who's going to events? What are the popular places? How do you get there?

Before Localist, there was no solution. Schools offered a static listing of events that remained largely unused by the student body.

That's where Localist comes in. Localist bridges the gap by integrating seamlessly into an institution's website, leveraging the services tools students are already plugged into, like Facebook and Twitter, while offering powerful administrative tools that resource-strained faculty desperately need.
