New Beginnings
Can you believe that summer break is quickly coming to an end? I was flipping through the newspaper this weekend and almost every ad from the grocery store, hardware store, bookstores, even toy stores were advertising Back to School sales all focused towards welcoming college students back to campus.
StudyBlue is getting ready to welcome everyone back too. We have been working hard this summer to add additional tools to help serious students study smarter.
As I said, this has been a crazy, busy summer for StudyBlue. We have added additional members to our growing team, finalized our Board of Directors, attended the Google I/O conference, been working on fundraising opportunities, and as I said earlier added a lot of tools.
At the end of last year we surveyed StudyBlue users and 70% of users said that StudyBlue helped them earn better grades and ease their stress. We were really proud of these numbers, and we took them seriously. We worked to add new tools to StudyBlue that could help students even more.
A new school year is a time for new beginnings. Stay tuned for what new features we have in store for you.
We are very excited about this school year and can’t wait to see you back at StudyBlue.
