College CMS: Yalestation.org

Niko just found YaleStation.org, the Yale community portal.

From the About page :

YaleStation was conceived by founder and then-freshman Alexander Clark in September 2000.
That means they have had a dedicated team of developers working on this site for seven years. It's an interesting site with a lot of visual content that cues from what you might see in real life, such as the use of poster icons as they might appear on a real college bulletin board.

My theory is that there are a huge number of these sorts of systems in the wild. We just need to figure out which one offers enough promise to cut the search off and begin investing in the platform.

Thanks,

Brody
