Localist mimics social networking sites →

This is back from August; Towson University’s paper wrote a story about the launch of Localist at their institution. It gives a great sense of why Towson decided to go with Localist and what they prioritized as an organization.

A select quote from Matt Sikorski, Towson’s SGA President:

“I truly believe this could be a game changer in terms of advertising for student groups and on-campus departments, as well as for students who are just looking for something to do,” he said. “There haven’t been resources like this website where you can customize your profile and follow events that fall under a certain category or a certain venue on campus. No more looking around at 900 different types of advertising, this can just be your one-stop hub.”
