Website Enhancements Now Live

Public Affairs and Communications has launched some changes in time for CAS yield season for prospective students who have recently received offers of acceptance.

If you haven’t already noticed, our website header on CAS pages is now orange to match our institutional brand and color. We’re also rolling out an improved search experience. Public Affairs and Communications launched these changes in time for CAS yield season for prospective students who will receive acceptance offers on March 22.

The website now uses Google as its search engine, so expect improvements across the board (such as seeing results from the libraries and athletics websites, which did not show up in the old search). Additionally, searches for staff, faculty, and students are now pulled from both Colleague and Workday, ensuring the most accurate data available. To ease the transition, the old search engine will remain available through the end of this school year.

And don’t forget: New Media has LiveWhale office hours every Wednesday from 9:30–11 a.m. Our team of experts is here to answer all of your website-related questions!
