About The Jolt

Who are we, and what are we doing here?


Many years ago a sophomore at Amherst College named Amit Gupta built the first Daily (then called Amherst Central.) He and a few friends found that all of the Amherst-related web sites were created by the school’s administration or, even worse, were cheesy sites created by folks who hadn’t been to a campus in years and had no idea what students needed or wanted. So these little bastards figured they’d change all that.

The UMaine Jolt came about one Thanksgiving vacation when Sarah and Jess were visiting a high school friend who goes to another college. They discovered that the University of Maine is just about the only college on this side of paradise without a Daily Jolt. So they made one, with a little help from their friends.
