Arist — The SMS university. Education made easy.

I've known Michael for two years, and have so much respect for him and his mission. After building TILE, an entrepreneurship-lecture-series-in-a-box that's been used for 280+ events in 43+ different countries, Michael identified that low-income students don't have access to laptops or traditional electronics... only phones. Instead of giving up, he partnered with Babson College, USC, and UCLA to design the world's first text-message university. 👏👏 Excited to see where he goes, and proud to call him a friend. 🤗

I was fortunate enough to get a sneak peek at the course and it's brilliantly produced. The blockchain definition is just the tip of the iceberg. Fantastic content. Amazing work @ioffe and team!

Sign up is tough on mobile. I managed to trick it to work but it wasn’t easy. I’ll come back and post about the course itself!

Update: Arist just relaunched with brand-new courses, Facebook Messenger integration, and an entire text message learning platform. Check it out: www.arist.co
