New AU Web Site, Submit Your User Content
Russ Choma
For devoted readers of the AmericanObserved blog, you'll know I've long had a chip on my shoulder about the placement of the Observer on the AU SOC's Web site. Well, the school has a new Web site, and so does the SOC. The content isn't dramtically different, although it looks a littl more modern. There's a "Student and Faculty" work page - it's still "dynamic" and OUR student work isn't exactly prominent. We do have a permanent link on the bottom of several pages, and a couple shout-outs throughout the site, which is nice.
Last time I complained about our lack of visibility on the SOC Web site, it got a fairly quick response, which summed up was: you have to tell us you want attention because we've got a lot going on. This time they're making it easier: there's an easy link to submit "user content" to the SOC Web site. The ability to submit "user content" may be the development that will prevent us from getting jobs in August, but let's use it to our advantage today.
