Digital services by and for Swarthmore students

Welcome! We're a collective of student volunteers who maintain digital services for the students, staff, and alumni of Swarthmore College. We offer club mailing lists, a campus directory, a daily digest, and much more. Most services require an SCCS account, available to anyone with an @swarthmore.edu email address.

At long last, the next-generation version of the SCCS Course Planner has released! The Planner now features SCCS Account login and plan sync to make your life easier, a professor and class rating system, and an all-new responsive, modern UI.
