Why are there inconsistencies across department websites?

For example, some department websites include a research and publications page, but others do not. Some include an “In Memoriam” page, while others do not. In light of new content and infrastructure rules, how can the Faculty better advise departments about best practices, options, innovations, collective content-building strategies, and work with departments to expand their options.

If when the websites were being redesigned and a department did not have previous content for research or publications, or they didn’t provide that information when websites were rebuilt, the Communications team would not have been able to add those pages since that content did not exist. However, it appears that all sites have publications, but not all have research. All departments used the same template but if there was no content, those sections were taken out and the menus were adjusted since we cannot display empty pages per sections. 

If you’d like to request a new section to be added to your department website, please submit a request through the Communications Hub.
