Start Building Your Points!

By Addison Mason 
Roger Williams is introducing a new point system to amplify student engagement. Added to the original Roger Link tabs, there is a new one labeled “Points.” Each event will have its own set point value that students can earn upon check-in. The points will lead to future rewards and prizes for those attending events on campus.
The initiative came from Campus Labs, the company that manages Hawk Link. In a raffle, Roger Williams was chosen as 1 of 10 schools participating in the first wave of the trial. It is a device that will advertise an organization’s event by providing point values to students that can lead to future prizes. Campus Labs envisioned this as a way for students to attend events they are interested in and create their own end goal rather than the school choosing it for them.
