EVERYONE wants a link on the home page. That's Rule Number One.

We can probably just posit a chorus of "Me, Too!" rising from the
campus as a whole.

Having watched ufl.edu evolve since it was bikini, I can say that our
web presence is profoundly enhanced by unity of artisitic vision and
lack of committe-driven placement by momentary political prominence.


Take a look.

http://www.ufl.edu/thisSite/

the History section.


Some of the previous designs had.... (ahem) pervasive committe input.
We are so drastically better off now.


Here

http://gradschool.rgp.ufl.edu/personnel/college-department-links.html

is a list of major UF organizations.


We can't stick that list everywhere, and as soon as one of them gets
on the Home Page, we're in status-infighting hell.

So, let's try not to do that, please?
