1. Add Administrator: Prompts for specific data and creates an instance of Administrator.

2. Add Teacher: Prompts for specific data and creates an instance of Teacher.

3. Add Faculty Member: Prompts for specific data and creates an instance of Faculty.

4. Add Administrative Staff: Prompts for specific data and creates an instance of Administrative.

5. Add Student: Prompts for specific data and creates an instance of Student.

8. View All Members: Displays information about all community members.

9. Exit: Terminates the program.

Auxiliary Methods 🐱‍👤

The program also includes auxiliary methods to request user inputs and validate them:

• RequestString(field): Requests a text string.
• RequestNumber(field): Requests a string containing only numbers.
• RequestInteger(field): Requests an integer number.

This modular and object-oriented design allows for easy extension and maintenance of the system, facilitating the management of different roles within a community.
