FiskConnect

Winner - Future Fisk Hackathon

Every year, Fisk students graduate without ever meeting the alumni who could have changed their lives. Not because Bulldogs don’t care. But because the network isn’t activated where students live, learn, and grow.

We don’t lack alumni. We lack infrastructure.

And that’s exactly what FiskConnect is built to change.

A Next.js 14 (App Router) + Supabase platform connecting Fisk University students, alumni, and administration. Role is determined by email domain at signup.
