genuinely helpful

great news source 10/10, able to understand the campus environment for my child

Great experience so far!

Loving the app so far; had a couple of crashing issues with it but when it’s stable it’s really intuitive and well made. I only wish the mini crossword was included here, too.

Incredible and easy to use!

I love staying up to date with Columbia and NYC news through spec’s site and social media, but this app just made it so much easier to do so. It’s very clean and easy to navigate. I also love the multimedia articles, podcasts, and the crosswords!!! Super fun. Great job to the designers and developers!
