Alestle Staff Report

A new Web site allows students to advertise all activities and events through a one-step process. Campusdog.com allows individual and student groups to promote any event or activity happening at their schools.

Mike Wilcox, president of Campusdog.com, said: "In the past, students had to thumbtack a piece of paper on bulletin boards. This service allows students to browse on any campus in the country for free."

By logging on to Campusdog.com, students now have the opportunity to reach thousands of their peers over the Web. Students can log on to the "What's Happening" section and post information about events happening on campus.

"A student at one school can log onto his Campusdog.com site and find out what fraternity parties are happening at his school at the same time as a student from another school finds out what the repertory theater is showing on her campus," said Greg Alexander, chief executive officer of Campusdog.com. "It's a great service for all college students."

For students' convenience, this Web site allows students to post events in separate categories: Parties and Events, Campus Clubs and Greek Scope, and many more.

Campusdog.com also features an advice column titled "You've Got Issues" that allows students to receive real advice on any subject. This easy-to-access resource allows students from all campuses across the country to send in a question and have it answered online.

Another section of Campusdog.com called "About Last Night" allows students to share stories about college life. Students have the opportunity to share their perspectives on dating, dorm life, partying or simply being a student.

Campusdog.com is the only online entertainment and information channel that provides localized information to more than 1,400 college campuses in the United States. The St. Louis-based company has built this community by developing exclusive software that collects local content and delivers it to college students across the country. Campusdog.com targets the estimated 15 million students who traditionally have no way of receiving entertainment information.
