McSIS
Circa 1996 Designed to take advantage of existing
telecommunications and business technologies of the time
Record management services (RMS) on a VAX/Virtual Memory System (VMS).
Features such as menu creation, user administration

McSIS limitations
Requires a dumb terminal or terminal emulator
Does not take advantage of pointing devices or color
New menus needed created every time new information was added.
Inappropriate number of fields (i.e. Phone numbers)
Not as user friendly as it claims ->

Example
To perform a search in the McSIS system:When the cursor is placed at the student ID#
prompt, press the Backspace/Delete key and you will be prompted for the “Enter Last Name.” This will appear at the bottom of the screen.
