MacNav vs ShowNxt

MacNav is the official student app for Macalester College! Designed based on feedback from Macalester students and student government, MacNav’s purpose is to help Macalester students find what they need quickly on campus. New Student Status: For incoming students, MacNav includes a way for you to stay on track with your New Student Portal tasks (including push notification reminders of important deadlines). Search: Mac Search is a customized search engine built on top of Google’s renowned platform. Where Google often guesses, we know based on decades of experience what content Macalester students need in certain contexts. Also better than Google, we can add links to things that Google can’t see (like portals behind a password). Find Help: A slimmed-down version of the current Find Help webpage, the Find Help view in Mac Nav includes links to urgent support resources. You can customize this view by pinning links to the top so you can find them quickly again later. Hours: Find out what is open on campus right now in the Campus Hours view. We will keep adding locations as we get more departments using our new hours-tracking system. Similar to Find Help, you can pin locations to the top of the Campus Hours view so you can quickly see your favorite locations. Café Mac Menu: Stay up-to-date with today’s Bon Appétit menus for Café Mac. We are updating these menu displays frequently to keep up with any changes. Campus Events: Drawing data directly from the college’s events calendar, Campus Events shows you all the events being promoted on campus this week and into the future. You can search and filter all events, and you can expand the full event details here rather than having to jump to another webpage. Who It's For: New Macalester Students Current Macalester Students People on campus who want to find out what’s happening and where to go
