Description
Home Slides display as the prominent items at the top of the home page in a slider. This content is the first impression that visitors will have of Â鶹´«Ã½. It is important to be highly selective as to what to include in the Home Slides. Default slides should reflect Â鶹´«Ã½'s brand and link to key sections such as Why Â鶹´«Ã½ and Academics & Research. Newsworthy items should be added to the slider only when there is a good quality, high resolution photo and a story that represents Â鶹´«Ã½ well to primary audiences, such as Homecoming or Graduation. Home Slide images should be photography and NEVER contain type within the image, as it will conflict with the type that is overlayed.
