Log Types

Log types are used to group log entries by classification, indicating the nature of a log entry. Additionally, subtypes can be created within each log type to further characterize the log entry. For example, a log entry related to cheating on a test is discipline-related. Discipline is the log type, and cheating is the subtype.
