WEB WORKS
EDWARDS ONLINE UPDATE:
The next time users open their browsers to the Edwards Campus Web site, they'll find a new user experience. The campus' new homepage maintains distinctiveness, but the internal pages were converted to KU's standardized Web template. New features on the homepage include an Edwards A to Z, a new section titled 'Serving the Community,' which allows the campus to highlight its community outreach activities, more prominent information for prospective students, a new section titled 'Edwards Campus Spotlight,' which gives additional attention to an event, campaign, emergency message and bold usage of KU colors and the Jayhawk. A team of Edwards Campus staff worked with academic computer services and Web communications staff to complete the project.
