Instagram is trying to go back to the roots of its parent company, Facebook.
Whether or not you were on the famed platform from the beginning as a college student, you most likely know it started as a social platform for college students.
Facebook was mainly only open to college students only. You needed to have a .edu college email address in order to even sign up for a profile.
Instagram will soon be introducing college community groups.
According to a CNBC report Instagram is testing a college community feature which would allow students to find one another through class-based lists.
If a user decides to join a college group to connect with other students, they would then opt into having their content shared to the list of other students. Public insta-stories would be viewable directly from the college community lists.
It looks like Instagram still has some bugs to work out as a CNBC reporter was able to join a college list even though they weren’t a current student but a graduate.
Keep watching for the full rollout of college group lists.
