Facebook is returning to its roots with the launch of Facebook Campus, a college-only space designed to help students connect with fellow classmates over shared interests, according to the press release. The social media giant, which had originally started its life as a networking site for college students, is now refocusing its efforts on connecting students, particularly in the wake of COVID, even if they are away from college. Here's what you can expect from the new Facebook Campus platform if you are a college student:
The new Facebook Campus is currently being piloted at 30 universities around the U.S., and is siloed so that only people who attend the same school can interact with one another. This isn't the only higher education-based initiative in which Facebook has participated. Did you know that Facebook donated $5 million to support college scholarships for Dreamers and undocumented students, as well as $120 million towards technology scholarships at select schools?
