The Arts and Science IT staff have provided the templates below as a way to help
those faculty members who would like to modify their
personal website presence, but
don't know where to start (in terms of design).
Below are a couple of templates that can be downloaded (from a zip file) to the
desktop. After being download and unzipped, these files can then be uploaded
into FrontPage where they can be customized to match the faculty member's
individuality.
Some FrontPage knowledge is required.
Workshops
and manuals on how to use FrontPage are offered by UnIT.
Arts and Science IT staff can assist faculty in the very beginning, but
content for and maintenance of the site are the
faculty member's responsibility.
