I'm surprised to see them on a patchwork of applications still and not already on an enterprise-wide system like Ellucian Banner. I wasn't expecting Workday here, though.

That doesn't quite make sense for a college. Students aren't employees, why are we trying to fit them into the same mold as an employee in this nonsense it feels like?

Workday’s student offering is designed as a full student management offering like Banner et al, with the carrot that it’s internally integrated into the financial & HR systems, which avoids another vendor and also a massive and ongoing finger pointing exercise.

It’s also one of the few from-scratch cloud-first student management solutions.

Banner is just a pile of hacks on top of an Oracle ERP with 7 character names for everything in the core. At least that was the state of affairs as of a number of years ago.
