Wienkes, Kirk, T., “Leadership and Alumni Tracking System”, Master of Software Engineering, May 2010, (Dr. Kenny Hunt).
When an organization grows, it needs to evolve in order to effectively manage the increased amount of information required to effectively run. Today, this means making the leap from analog to digital. For the local chapter of Campus Crusade for Christ on the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse campus, increased growth within the ministry and with the scope of their target area has begun to cause logistical problems with managing student leaders and alumni.
