The IT Student Life & Enrollment (IT‑SLE) team is pleased to announce the launch of our newly upgraded website. This update represents a major step forward in how web content is managed, aligning with evolving university standards and accessibility requirements.
What’s New
The upgraded site is built using Aurora’s new Cynder theme and WordPress Block Editor, providing a more flexible, modern editing experience for content owners. These tools make it easier to create structured, visually consistent content while maintaining compliance with university branding and accessibility standards.
Key improvements include:
- Block Editor functionality for more intuitive page layout and content creation
- Improved accessibility support, helping content owners meet ADA and WCAG compliance expectations
- Enhanced design consistency across pages using standardized Cynder components
- Better content organization, making it easier for users to find key information
These updates are part of a broader effort across Student Life & Enrollment to ensure our websites remain accessible, user-friendly, and aligned with university-wide web standards.
