The Web Communications Challenge

Your website is a powerful communication tool. It's the one place you can reach everyone — on and off campus. However, the web is not perfect. Your website is a passive medium that expects students, alumni, and other viewers to navigate to it. Not only must viewers navigate to your site, they must remember to visit your site often enough to receive the benefits of the information you provide.

The Power of Customized Personal Portals
