Math Emporium student scheduler

The Math Emporium Student Scheduler, hereafter abbreviated to MESS, is an independent webbased, server hosted work shift scheduling program designed for the Math Emporium, located on the fourth floor of Bracken Library, at Ball State University, Muncie, Indiana. MESS is primarily based upon an internet accessible database which stores the account information, such as login credentials and available schedule times. MESS interfaces with Ball State servers on campus as a hosting service for the program, currently residing within a temporary server within the Computer Science Department waiting for migration to a permanent server within the Math Department and implementation for the Fall 2019 semester. MESS was developed by the Unified Media Associates (UMA), in response to the request from a client, the Math Emporium Coordinator, to enhance the efficiency of the scheduling process for the student assistants of the Math Emporium.
