75grand is an unofficial, student-made app for Macalester students, faculty, and staff that provides useful tools and integrations with campus resources. 75grand is not affiliated with Macalester College. Please contact support@75grand.net with any problems instead of ITS. DINING HALL MENUS See what’s cooking in Café Mac, with the ability to view menus up to a week in advance and as far back as 2012, if that’s something you wanted to do. MARKETPLACE Buy and sell textbooks, furniture, and more with the peace of mind that listings aren’t anonymous and are only open to Macalester students, faculty, and staff. CAMPUS CALENDAR Keep up with what’s happening on campus. The calendar aggregates events from the official campus calendar, the Program Board calendar, the sports calendar, and more. You can sign up to be notified when events are about to begin, and see who else is interested in going. BUILDING & SERVICE HOURS Don’t let holiday hours interrupt your schedule! See the hours of dozens of campus buildings and services, including Café Mac, the library, the Hamre Center, and more. MOODLE ASSIGNMENTS Connect your Moodle account each semester to see your upcoming assignments and get notified when they’re due. MACPASS Forgot your wallet? 75grand can remember and display your MacPass. The data stored securely on your device. MAILBOX COMBINATION Only psychopaths remember their mailbox combination, let alone how to open it. 75grand can remember your P.O. box number and combination, and show animated instructions for opening it! The data stored securely on your device. QUICK ACTIONS The home screen provides quick access to your MacPass, time clock, mailbox combination, library catalog, room reservations, and more.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Code at none against 75grand's shown. Code also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). 75grand's advantage is ratings volume (18 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
