Research direction

Create resource-inventory.md in the final project's repository. Identify official resources for Academic Support, Transportation, Housing, and Student Services; verify each URL opens the intended page and record the resource name, category, URL, a short description, and the date checked. Done when the inventory includes all four categories and explains the student need each resource addresses.

Description

For my final project, I plan to build a website that helps new UIUC students find campus resources. A useful first task is to create a small resource inventory before adding content to the website.

Problem:
The website needs a consistent set of verified resources. Without an inventory, links could be duplicated, descriptions could be inconsistent, and important categories could be overlooked.

Proposed solution:
Create a resource-inventory.md file containing at least four official resources, with one each for Academic Support, Transportation, Housing, and Student Services. Each entry should include the resource name, category, official URL, a short description, and the date the link was checked.

Completion criteria:

Include one resource for each of the four categories.

Check that each link opens the intended official webpage.

Explain what student need each resource addresses.

Save the inventory in the final project's repository.

Why this is a good first issue:
This is a small, clearly defined task that does not require completed website code. It creates content that can support later design, implementation, and testing.
