The Alumni association developed a set of informational pages for the recent Grand Reunion weekend, which included event schedules, faqs, campus map, shuttle and parking information.  Providing this information on SCU Mobile is an added convenience for event attendees, and a similar approach would be recommended for other large-scale multi-day events on campus.

SCU faculty, staff and students can now make room reservations in the Learning Commons & Library and in Lucas Hall using SCU Mobile.  This had previously only provided a view of current availability - that's still provided, but is extended to allow you to reserve an available room using your mobile device.

We've added a couple of things to the mobile site's course catalog section.  The class location text in the class detail view is now linked to the mobile campus map.  And a new subcategory has been added to the Catalog section for the SCU Summer Program.  This includes an overview of the program, schedule, and lists of classes offered in the various sessions.

We're working on another new feature for the mobile site; a list of rooms available to reserve for meetings in the new library.  Initially this may not offer the ability to actually reserve a room, but will show what's available at the moment.

A search form has been added to the Catalog section of the mobile site.  This  search form is similar to the "quick search" in Courseavail - you can enter a partial text string, a 5-digit class number, a subject code, or subject and course number, along with a selected term to access course offerings and seats remaining for specific classes.

We're now including the RSS feeds for The Santa Clara and SCU's Twitter account in the Campus News category.
