ISU Web Style Guide

Web Update
December, 2007

All departments are required to attend SharePoint Designer training by March 1, 2008. Web editors can register for training online via the Center for Instructional Research and Technology website, http://isu1.indstate.edu/ittrain/user/dspClasses.asp

Following training, departmental websites will be moved to the new web environment.

The Indiana State University website represents ISU to the world on an ongoing basis. It is often the first information source prospective students go to when researching their higher education options and a daily source of information for ISU employees and current students.

Because of the high profile and importance of the ISU website, every effort must be made to create a unified, content rich, comprehensive website representing all of the ISU units and departments. This online Web Style Guide is designed to help staff across campus prepare their websites to reflect the most positive and effective means of communication with all of our internal and external constituents.

The Office of Communications and Marketing is responsible for assisting each administrative office and academic department in meeting these expectations with limited resources. The vice presidential and dean's offices will coordinate the work of their units in meeting these guidelines within the given time frames.
