The events module is a useful tool to inform residents about different events going on run by the staff of the Ship apartments. The Flickr module will provide photos of current residents, showing them pictures of events and new t shirt designs for the apartments. The mapping module will provide directions to the multiple locations of the apartments. The coupon module will allow for students to receive coupons from local businesses.
