R Shiny Bren Student Data Exporer

- Prospective students in their decision-making as they explore the different degree programs at the Bren School
- Bren departments and staff with their reporting requirements
- All Bren communities and stakeholders from the past, present, and future by upholding data transparency and data integrity principles through an accessible application
