Abstract/Artist Statement

The Chapter Connection Phone App is an Android application that centralizes around chapter communications. It initially targets fraternities and sororities but will eventually be expanded to support general chapters or clubs of any kind. This app will provide an easy way to communicate within a group about private matters as well as to communicate with people outside the group for sharing information about events and news. The app will be free to the end user but organizations will be a charged a service fee for server space.A user will request access to a particular group, with either member access or guest access. Since there will be different group levels of users, the communication aspect of the app can be easily controlled. If a notification needs to be pushed out to members of a group saying that the chapter meeting is at 5pm, it can be sent just to those members of that permission level. If a campus wide message needs to be sent out regarding philanthropy, it can be sent to members, students, administrators, etc. There will also be other functions of the app that will be activated according to the type of user.
