App Idea Contest Winner

September 9, 2010 9:31 am College Life, Contests

Congratulations to Tiffany Bradley of Knoxville, TN. Tiffany did the unthinkable and actually had two apps entered into the fray and both of them survived till the semifinal round. And since a Tiffany vs Tiffany vote would have been unfair as well as masochistic, we’ve decided to give her the prize instead. College Life and their parent company Classes and Careers.com are excited with the turnout and response to this contest and are very pleased with the results. We’re excited to have an idea that will translate into an interactive application that will help improve college life and experience. (See what I did there? “College Life”!) Congrats again to Tiffany.
