Always Up-to-Date: How Dynamic and Curated Modules Help Your Page Stay Fresh

Dynamic components allow you to quickly feature departments, academic programs, faculty and staff, student ambassadors, testimonials, and news without duplicating all of your work!

  • These components are designed to limit the creation of duplicate information by using a centralized directory database to reference when utilizing any of the content used in dynamic components.

This will help keep our site small, keep our information fresh, and enhance our search engine effectiveness.
