Pansophy Software Updates
Student Researchers: Trisha Fultz, Spencer Hall, Qisheng Li
Faculty Advisors: Denise Byrnes (Computer Science)
The Pansophy student contact management software was created by a previous AMRE team for the Dean of Students Office. Pansophy is used to keep a record of potential problems and important information concerning students at the College of Wooster. Some examples include a death in the family, low grades in a particular class, or a parent's concerns about financial aid. Documenting these prospective issues helps prevent students from falling through the cracks. This summer, we were tasked with upgrading the software to fix bugs and add new features, such as a way to archive graduated students. Along with the new features, we updated the user help documentation to aid users in recognizing and understanding the new features.
