PROJECT SUMMARY 1.Black Lightning notes are organized by series. Each series has a unique name and course control number; it is broken up into a specific lecture which is identified by its unique number as well as the semester, year, date, and location it was taught. We keep track of the subscriptions made for each lecture series and the payment method and amount for each subscription.

PROJECT SUMMARY 2. Comments/complaints made about the lecture series, who took and edited the notes for the lecture/series and when, and the professor and/or GSI who teaches the course are also all stored. Each person has a unique number, a name, contact information, among others.

PROJECT SUMMARY 3. There are four different types of employees: senior editor, manager, editor, and note taker. Each employee type is identified by a unique number, a name, and contact information. We also keep track of the hours each employee has worked and which lecture(s) they took notes for.
