Scheduling a Quarter or Semester

Some­thing I need to do every quar­ter is plan out our Chi Alpha events, but there are few cal­en­dars in the for­mat I pre­fer. I like see­ing all the weeks of the quar­ter stacked on top of one anoth­er.

So I made a lit­tle tool that gen­er­ates a week­ly cal­en­dar for an arbi­trary date range (such as a quar­ter or a semes­ter). Just put the first day of class and the last day of finals in and the pro­gram should do the rest.

A fea­ture I’m par­tic­u­lar­ly proud of is that you can export the result­ing cal­en­dar to .doc (Microsoft Word) for­mat so you can cus­tomize it with your own events.

The script is ugly but func­tion­al. The result­ing cal­en­dars, on the oth­er hand, are pret­ty and func­tion­al. 🙂
