IRL September Updates
Jayson Margalus
At 828 unique check-ins and 380 unique visits, September 2018 is the most visited month at the IRL since we've been collecting data. It's important to note that September was not a full academic month, and that it's the beginning of the year, and the numbers would've likely been even higher otherwise. Also, these statistics do not reflect additional visits from large events (FIRST Robotics) and school tours.
Other things of note: Wednesdays are now our biggest days, with Fridays being second most. Kendrick remains our most frequent visitor! Someone give him a prize. The space is being used by far the most for supporting classes.
