Problem Statement

High school students applying or considering different colleges can easily find the statistics and official descriptions of the universities on their websites. Their questions and concerns might not be answered by the official information, but rather they would like to have insider information based on current students’ perspectives. They would like to know about the college’s greek life, dorms, the truth about the workload and how fun the campus really is.

CampusConnection allows college students to post reviews, media and ratings about their current campus in order to provide more accurate information about what their experience has been like. High school students can view this information and can also post questions they have about the university.

    Nice job overall.  Your problems with errors (entry of events) and some learnability issues that really resulted from not being able to implement things in time, which I think guided too many of your design decisions in the end, so just be aware of that in your future projects.  Definitely lots of good improvements as a result of testing.
