Not open at your school yet? Verify your address and you'll hold a place — we open a circle once enough students are waiting.
One window. A board your campus is actually reading, your whole week on one grid, a marketplace of people who sat your exams, study groups with real seats, and chat that knows what a Circle link is.
CS 161 Algorithms — final review thread
★★★★☆
Final on Friday. Started a study doc with all dynamic-programming patterns from lecture 7–12. Drop your tricky problems below.
Anyone else getting wrecked by Dr. Holloway’s curve?
Midterm avg was a 67 and then she ‘curved’ to a 71.

THE BOARD
Posts, reviews and questions from verified students at your university — ranked by what is moving right now, not by what an algorithm thinks you would click. Tags are pulled out of the writing itself, so following #math101 follows the conversation, not a channel someone remembered to post in.

TIMETABLE
Search your campus’s classes by course code, pick the free hours on your grid to see only what fits, and let the wizard lay out the combinations that don’t clash, fewest days first. Anything else — a part-time job, club practice — goes in by hand beside them. Each course carries anonymous reviews from students who took it, and nobody else can see your week.
STUDY GROUPS
A study group has a real seat count. Take one and the thread becomes your coordination channel — every reply reaches everyone seated, and nobody else. The host is counted separately, because hosting is not a seat.
MATH 101 study group · Wed 7pm @ the library
Working through chapter 5 problems. Bringing snacks.
SWAP
Textbooks, calculators, the desk lamp you no longer need. Every buyer and seller holds a verified address at your university, so a listing is a conversation with a classmate rather than a stranger from the internet.
PSYC 9A handwritten notes

Calculus: Early Transcendentals

CHAT
Paste a Circle link into a message and it opens into a card — but only for someone allowed to see what it points at. The same message previews for one person and stays a plain link for another, which is the privacy rule doing its job rather than a display trick.

With Google or your personal email — your everyday address, not your university one. Nothing is public yet, and your account starts empty on purpose.
We mail a six-digit code to that inbox. Entering it is what makes you a member — there is no other way in.
Optional. Transferred, on exchange, or in a joint program? Verify a second address and you belong to both.
A verified university address is the membership. Not a profile field, not a badge — the thing itself. Lose it and you lose the room.
Follow the people worth reading. It is one-directional, private, and they are never told — no follower counts, no scoreboard.
Every event renders on the university’s own time zone, and classes sit on the grid at the campus’s time — a 9 o’clock class reads 9 o’clock wherever you are reading from.
Takes a minute. Bring your university email.
