Read MoreOn Friday, April 8th, the CG team was beyond thrilled to host our 2nd annual virtual conference with our wonderful campus partners!
We were delighted to gather together and connect with so many creative and innovative campus leaders at CampusGroups Rendez-Vous โ22! It was such a pleasure to see and hear from the incredible members of the CG community! ๐
Over 400 attendees from 12 countries and 141 campuses around the globe joined us for an exciting day of discussions, inspiration, discovery and new connections!
11 presenters from 8 institutions shared creative ways they have been adapting and innovating to keep their students connected and engaged.
Read MoreJohns Hopkins University (JHU) has been a CampusGroups (CG) partner since July 2020.
JHU needed an all-in-one and highly customizable community engagement platform. According to Calvin Smith, JHUโs Director of Student Leadership and Involvement, โCG provided JHU with the solutions it needed in one placeโ. These include:
Multi Community Hub Campus Portal- This feature has enabled the implementation of a comprehensive platform university wide. It has also enabled each of the nine campuses to have its own Community Hub.
Highly Customizable Platform- This has enabled each campus to create a custom landing page and menu. They can therefore establish their own unique brand and send targeted communications to students.
Multiple Engagement Tools- CG serves as a one-stop-shop for co-curricular life at JHU. Available on the web and mobile, the platform has over 30 modules. These include group and event management, attendance tracking and gamification.
Robust Tracking and Reporting Features- What makes the platform extremely powerful is that all data feeds into an analytics and reporting dashboard. According to Calvin, โfrom a visibility or statistical standpoint, this has been transformational.โ
As we reflect upon the past year, we want to take a moment to acknowledge how proud and grateful we are to work with so many amazing institutions and innovative campus leaders. In another challenging and unpredictable year, our campus partners have been doing amazing things to build and engage their campus communities!
Read MoreLike bears, many of us are prone to hibernation when it gets too cold outside. Itโs just easier to hide away, snug in your dorm room watching Netflix on your laptop or scrolling TikTok videos from underneath a warm blanket. But too much isolation, we have learned in these unprecedented times, is not good for anyone.
In fact, campus life administrators who create campus events to keep students connected, active and involved may sometimes find this frosty time of year the most challenging.
If you are looking to help the students in your campus community to destress and engage in some fun activities this winter, weโve got you covered!
Read MoreOur mission at CampusGroups (CG) is to help campuses achieve more through our all in-one campus portal. Our goal is to build technology solutions that help students connect, engage, and succeed.
We pride ourselves on offering powerful and customizable solutions for the entire student-life cycle. Further, we strongly believe in the importance of bringing people together and activating our collective potential. This comes through in how we approach product development.
By working with our partner campuses and analyzing market trends, our team is continually looking to expand, refine, and innovate with our product.
2021 was no exception and an exciting year for the CG team and its partners. Between June and November of last year we launched six new modules.

As a high school student, Taryn aced her Honors and AP courses. She was active in orchestra, field hockey, her church youth group and after-school job. She graduated cum laude and even earned an academic scholarship. No question - she was ready for college!
Or so she thought.
The college learning experience, she quickly learned, was completely different than high school. Managing classes, a social life and extra-curricular activities used to be easier with built-in support and structure from parents, teachers and a structured school schedule.
In this new learning environment, however, her academic success began to unravel.
Read MoreWhen Isabella arrived on campus, she was excited to meet new people and discover more about herself and her new home. She knew that academics would take up a lot of her time but she didnโt want to miss out on campus life outside of the classroom.
Sheโd seen the movies. Wild parties and red Solo cups. That wasnโt the overall college experience she was after, though. Her eyes were on the prize: getting into a top graduate school. Even with her scholarship, Isabella understood the price tag of her education, and she had no intention of wasting the experience.
To get started on the right foot, Isabella decided to meet with her campus director of student life & activities. There, she received advice that could and would change her entire trajectory, helping to shape her campus experience and illuminate a pathway to reach her goals.
One key piece of advice Isabella received was that many enriching opportunities were available and happening all around her!
