The University of Chicago website has a new look! Web developers all over the university have been working for about a year to turn this thing out. For a university this complicated and decentralized, or for any website launch, that's a pretty quick turnaround! We're very proud of what we've accomplished.
Yours truly worked on the admissions page with Dena, who also develops ThickEnvelope, our admitted student website, and takes care of the main college admissions site with me. Erik, who manages the online application and makes it so darn pretty and functional, was the main designer. You'll notice that he took a lot of colors and layout tips from our own viewbook, the Life of the Mind. We've never been so proud of our hometown talent and our little publication that could.
Since applicants are one of our most valued constituent groups on the web (and usually the most web savvy!), we definitely want your feedback on the beta site.
