Drowning in paperwork, Laurel, CALIPSO Founder, knew there had to be an easier and more efficient way to work. Attempts to modify generic computer applications and to hire an independent programmer to build a system failed due to time-intensiveness and expense. Finally, Laurel received approval for an in-house technology project and was introduced to a very talented MUSC computer programmer, Satyajit. The initial goal of the project was to reduce and streamline the paperwork for administrators, clinical supervisors, and students by creating a web-based system for entering and calculating student clinical performance evaluations and clinical clock hours.
