1. Brief Description

This use case allows the Registrar to maintain student information in the registration system. This includes adding, modifying, and deleting students from the system.

The actor for this use case is the Registrar.

The use case begins when the Registrar selects the "maintain student" activity from the Main Form.

2.1    Basic Flow - Add Student

1. The Registrar selects "add student."
2. The system displays a blank student form.
3. The Registrar enters the following information for the student: name, date of birth, social security number, status, and graduation date.
4. The system validates the data to insure the proper format and searches for an existing student with the specified name. If the data is valid the system creates a new student and assigns a unique system-generated id number.
5. Steps 2-4 are repeated for each student added to the system. When the Registrar is finished adding students to the system the use case ends.

2.2    Alternative Flows

         2.2.1    Modify a Student

Issue: Must ensure the flows for modifying and deleting students are similar to the flows for modifying and deleting professors.

        2.2.2    Delete a Student
