For months, I have been working on the LionPATH project for Penn State. This is the enterprise student system that will be replacing the legacy system that the University has used for more than 30 years.
LionPATH went live in mid-August, which was an achievement for sure, but initially we were only collecting applicant data. We hit a major milestone last week when we produced the first admission decisions in the new system:
That’s the first pile of offers of admission to Penn State.
That is my fantastic colleague Caley, modeling the very first offer of admission latter that was produced from the system.
“So what?” you say? “What’s the big deal?”
The project has been going on for nearly two years (even though I joined up a couple of months ago), and it has taken lots of great folks a LOT of hard work to get this thing up and running.
So, this is merely a self-congratulatory post because I think that it is pretty friggin’ awesome that this thing works – and works well (so far)!
