A WordPress 3.0 theme to do more with less at The University of Alabama
August 25th, 2010
Offering a consistent look and feel on the Web at a big university is a challenge. When implementing a content management system across hundreds of units or departments isn’t an option – for budget reason, some institutions have to adopt a different approach.
At the University of Alabama, the central web communications team includes only 4 people. That’s why Andy Rainey, director of Web Communications, is a big proponent of the “teach-them-how-to-fish” approach. His team has always designed and published web resources to help the larger university community get up to speed with their web presence, using more recently WordPress as their web platform of choice.
Last April they launched 3 branded WordPress themes to create the winning combo of ease of use with WordPress and consistency with a unique web template.
