This project started with a simple goal: making it easier for everyone on campus to stay connected. The idea came from the frustration of not having one central place to find out what’s happening at Amherst. While the Daily Mammoth, the Hub, and other sources provide valuable information, they’re scattered and inconsistent. We wanted to change that by creating a single platform to bring everything together.


Amherst Connect is designed to be the one-stop hub for all campus events. It brings together information from multiple sources and displays it in real-time on a user-friendly map, a weekly calendar, and even a stats dashboard that highlights popular locations and times. With filters for location, time, and event type, it’s easy to find activities that match your interests.


Looking ahead, we’re planning to make Amherst Connect even smarter by adding AI and machine learning features. These will help recommend events you might enjoy and make campus life even more vibrant and connected.


We hope Amherst Connect helps you make the most of everything Amherst has to offer!
