The Problem
A university engineering chapter tracking attendance, meetings, events, and member records across scattered spreadsheets loses time to re-encoding and loses track of who actually showed up. The goal was one desktop tool that pulled all of that record-keeping into a single organized system.
What We Built
We built a Windows desktop application that records member attendance, logs meetings, manages event schedules, and holds the full member database in one place, syncing records to the cloud. A dedicated module talks to an RFID timekeeper over serial to register tags and drain its onboard log, and officers export attendance straight to spreadsheets, so timesheets come together without manual re-encoding. It replaced a pile of disconnected spreadsheets with one interface the chapter ran its day-to-day on. It was still recording live data five and a half years after it was written.

- One interface
members, meetings, events, and attendance in a single desktop app
- RFID timekeeper
tags registered and the device's onboard log drained over serial
- Export-ready
