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.

News and Updates

Important Changes to Accounts

6/2/2025

We have enabled a slew of new features across account creation, management, and login to enhance your experience and make life easier. Firstly, emails (email) are now separate from the unchangeable swatmail, and are changeable from our Account Options page. You can set a personal email for SCCS services—great for alums. We have also enabled the Forgot Password flow directly from our SSO login page—so when you go to log in, you can reset inline without leaving. We have also enabled (in beta) self-service full account management. Please pardon the unthemed appearance for now--we're working on it!

Course Planner v2 Released

12/15/2024

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. Planner v2 also uses our new swatscraper class schedule scraping tool, which pulls directly from Banner for super fast updates and more accurate course listings. Give it a try at plan.sccs.swarthmore.edu.

Server Upgrades Complete

11/8/2024

Our production server and VM host, nest, has been upgraded with more RAM! We are now running with ~500 GiB total, enabling us to have faster and more reliable experiences across the board, and add new VMs to support future projects. As always, you can make use of our hardware by SSH'ing into ssh.sccs.swarthmore.edu or requesting specific resources. Also, robin (SSH server) has been updated to Fedora 41!
