Penn students reimagine relationships with a virtual platform called Magic Connects.
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed so much about our lives and how we connect with one another. As we continue with social distancing, we are all trying to figure out new and innovative ways to safely maintain, enhance, and build connections. Magic Connects is a new platform developed by a team of five Penn students who specifically designed it to connect with other students with similar interests.
College students under quarantine are missing the opportunity to see one another in classrooms, chat about their daily lives, get a fresh cup of coffee, or help one another with their homework. Magic Connects gives students a new way to engage and find new people who share their values, according to Penn senior and founder Vraj Shroff.
