  We describe the current state of the Burke-Gaffney Observatory (BGO) at Saint
Mary's University - a unique fully roboticized remote-access observatory that
allows students to carry out imaging, photometry, and spectroscopy projects
remotely from anywhere in the world via a web browser or social media. Stellar
spectroscopy is available with the ALPY 600 low resolution grism spectrograph
equipped with a CCD detector. We describe our custom CCD spectroscopy reduction
procedure written in the Python programming language and demonstrate the
quality of fits of synthetic spectra computed with the ChromaStarServer (CSS)
code to BGO spectra. The facility along with the accompanying Python BGO
spectroscopy reduction package and the CSS spectrum synthesis code provide an
accessible means for students anywhere to carry our projects at the
undergraduate honours level. BGO web pages for potential observers are at the
site: observatory.smu.ca/bgo-useme. All codes are available from the OpenStars
