*Partner with IT to help install key card readers and create an adequate digital interface
===Summary=== Implementing key card readers will fulfill the lack of technological advances on campus. The key card readers would be used to monitor students' attendance. Rather than taking attendance by calling out names or writing one's name down on a sheet of paper, students can take out their student IDs and have the key card readers scan them to ensure they are accounted for in their in-person courses. They would be placed in classrooms and lecture halls, and data on the readers can be managed from any device. Hence, professors will always be aware of who attended their class, when they came in, and when they left. <br />

===Summary:===
Implementing the idea of the Communication APP REMIND will significantly impact student-professor relationships here on campus. Remind is a private messaging platform that one can use essentially on any device. It is free to use and possesses a clean, simple interface that we can work with IT to install. With Viking Engage and the campus's GroupMe being taken away, there is no longer an efficient communication tool for students and professors to use to communicate with one another. Using REMIND can fill that void as it aims to help teachers and students communicate simultaneously. Having instant access to an educator can enable students to feel comfortable, more connected to the college culture, and better understand the material being taught in their courses.
