We pretty quickly outgrew the Microsoft Access database and needed a better way to disseminate the information to numerous different parties. At this point I joined the programming group and created my first web application using PHP and Oracle: the Faculty Affairs Database System [FADS]. Although this was my first web application and it was written in PHP 4 way back in 2001, it is actually still running as of 2019! Not a bad run for a first attempt.
