About The Jolt


Project Jolt is composed of college students at schools around the country working collectively to create college-specific versions of The Daily Jolt. Dissatisfied with the Web sites of our own schools, with mainstream portal sites, and with lame attempts on the part of companies to create sites for college students, we decided to create our own start page.

Because it was created by actual college students and is run by them, too, the site is actually useful, interesting, easy, and usually a lot of fun.

Originating at Amherst College, and expanding to Brown and Dartmouth last year, Project Jolt has now expanded to many more campuses nationwide. All its members work together to innovate the design of the site as well as to localize the site for each college. Each college's Daily Jolt site is run by students at that school helping to ensure really useful content. The fact that we're all students also means you can write in with your suggestions for making the site more useful and we'll probably listen. For once, this is our site.
