SFU Introverts Club announces brand new app

[VANCOUVER CAMPUS] – In an attempt to convince the introverted population at SFU that going outside and meeting people is worth the effort, the club will be implementing various changes, including the release of the SFU Introvert App. The app will includes handy features, such as real-time hallway traffic, designed to allow members to avoid unnecessary crowds, and a list of secluded locations on campus for much-needed alone time.
