Case Study: University of Wisconsin-Stout boosts student engagement and assessment with CampusGroups

Engagement, Assessment, and Readiness Insights from CampusGroups & UW-Stout

The University of Wisconsin - Stout worked with CampusGroups to launch a new student engagement platform called Connect. The university needed a customized solution that reflected its campus identity, supported a wide range of student organizations and activities, and made it easier to engage students outside the classroom while also improving campus operations and assessment.

CampusGroups helped UW-Stout build a tailored app with student-designed branding, direct links to key campus resources, and custom features like event budgeting and forms. Early adopter workshops drew about 175 student leaders, who helped populate the system with more than 400 events. As a result, UW-Stout gained stronger student adoption, better access to participation data, and the ability to track engagement, assess communication performance, and identify students who may need extra support.
