YOUR CAMPUS NEWSLETTER

BY STUDENTS FOR STUDENTS

YCN is a simple weekly newsletter made by Iowa State students to help you keep up with campus life, especially if you’re new here or new to the U.S. Each week you’ll find events you can actually go to, useful resources you should know about, and quick tips for studying, saving money, and living in Ames all in one short, easy-to-read update.

Whether you’re still figuring out the buses, looking for quiet study spots, or trying to meet people beyond your classes, this newsletter is here to make things easier. Our goal is to share what real students wish they knew sooner, so you can spend less time feeling lost and more time feeling at home on campus.

ABOUT US

1010.org started as a small student idea during my first year at Iowa State. I was an international student trying to figure out buses, campus events, study spaces, and support offices, and I kept feeling like important information was scattered in too many places. I wanted one easy spot made by students, for students.

To solve that, I created YCN - Your Campus Newsletter, a short weekly update that collects events, resources, and tips that actually matter to international students. Over time, that idea grew into 1010.org, a student-led project focused on helping students feel informed, included, and less alone on campus.
