So you’ve probably noticed that the University website is different – we’ve switched to a new responsive design. (Full, official announcement from PR below.)
In case you missed it, here’s the email address where you can report issues: cms@scranton.edu. You can also reminisce about the old website in the Library’s web archive.
2013-08-14 email from External Affairs:
Later this evening we will launch a major update to the University’s website (scranton.edu), including a new homepage and section pages (e.g. About Us and Academics). Designed and developed in collaboration with nationally recognized partners, the enhanced site provides a fresher look that incorporates larger images, and new fonts, colors and graphics. The enhancements to our overall website follow the successful implementation last week of a substantial microsite to serve undergraduate admissions (admissions.scranton.edu).
Both scranton.edu and admissions.scranton.edu reflect our first use of “responsive Web design,” which adapts the presentation of images, links, forms and other content to match the screen size of the viewer (e.g. desktop, tablet or smartphone).
The overall project is the culmination of more than a year of collaboration between Marketing Communications and Information Technology Development and Applications. Given the breadth of work involved with this project and the complexity of accommodating such a wide variety of browsers and devices, you may encounter issues or concerns with pages on our site. If you should come across something, then please let us know by sending a link to the page and an explanation of the issue to cms@scranton.edu
Special thanks to all those who have worked so hard to put these improvements in place.
