The new RMS also allows Davidson College PD to update the college's stu- dent roster, a feature not available on older versions used by the department. "When I begin to enter information about a student on campus, the RMS will pull additional information about [them] from another existing database and populate the RMS record so that I don't have to type in all of that informa- tion," Sigler explains. "That's really the beauty of any records management sys- tem—cutting down on the redundancy." The software has also helped Alamo College narrow down suspects of a crime with the help of cross-referencing. In one instance at Alamo College a building had been broken into. Using its electronic RMS, the college was able to develop a suspect because he had been entered into the software on another case. "We got the guy on vid- eotape," Adams recalls, "and plugged some information into the RMS and got some suspects. We eliminated every suspect except this one guy based just on physical appearance. In the past, with our paper-based records system, we would never have been able to do this," he adds. The RMS used by Alamo Colleges also offers a citations module as stan- dard in the software. The college has substations at each of its five campuses and a clerk in each one. "This person has access to Crimestar because he takes care of all our campus tickets and Justice of Peace citations using the mod- ule," Adams says. The citation module, which captures and indexes information typically found on a traffic citation or parking violation, is linked to the RMS Master Vehicle Index. Citation data can also be used to create a "ticket" that can be issued to a violator. While colleges and universities are the predominant users of RMS pro- grams, many districts that encompass high schools and lower grade levels also gain from the benefits. Such is the case for the Austin Independent School District (AISD), a sprawling network of elementary, middle and high schools that covers the Austin, Texas, metroplex. CAD tied to RMS AISD has used its RMS from Crimestar since 2005 and is integrated with the software's CAD program. "Having our RMS linked to our CAD definitely helps with response time because the schools don't have to call 911, then have 911 call us to dispatch officers to a location for an incident," said Pamela Waugh, police Digital Ally, Inc.
