Congratulations to Matt Seigel, Web Programmer from the Office of Web and New Media, who was selected as University Relations Student Employee of the Month.

Matt was recognized for implementing the designs for the Missouri State Magazine web site. Early in the spring semester, Matt modified a Word Press blog install to support the issue based format of an online magazine and to handle the numerous features required. It was based upon this work that new plugins were made available in the main university blogs site for embedding media in a post.

Matt was also recognized for his work on shuttle tracking for the campus map. Implementing the display of the shuttles on the map required Matt to do a large amount of research and to collaborate with multiple other areas to make this project a success.

Please help me congratulate Matt on this much deserved recognition.
