While College Relations has assumed leadership of the external portions
of Skidmore's web (e.g. Admissions, College Relations, conferences, special
events, ...), the internal web pages have fallen behind the times and badly
need a major renovation.
In addition, the College needs to:
- Develop an expectation that all offices and departments will maintain
accurate and complete pages for their areas of responsibility.
- Develop support resources, such as trained students, technology mentors,
and simple presentation templates, to help offices fulfill this responsibility.
- Develop faculty support resources to span the range from those who mainly
want to post electronic syllabi, to those who use the web for complex
educational interactions.
- Portal-like services should be an integral component of the new Student
Information System.
- Enhance the potential role for the web as a tool for improving campus
communications and developing broader participation in developing a
common vision for Skidmore's future.
