Derek Bruff, senior lecturer and assistant director of the Center for Teaching, gave a presentation in the August 27 digitalVU meeting on technology in the classroom—useful not only for those who interact with students, but also for those wanting to learn more about interactive and digital friendly presentations. I think everyone got a little something...
Beautiful stained glass graces the banner on the Turner Center for Church Leadership website. We worked with Michelle Bukowski to build the Omni site – launching in time for the center to advertise its full-tuition scholarship program.Posted by Web Communications on August 26, 2010 in Launch, omni, turner center
ITS contacted our office for some assistance in trying to simplify their software store options. There are now two stores — and depending upon who you are and how you will pay for the products — you need to go to different stores. There are products that you can buy at both stores; some manufacturers only...
Our work with the Department of Political Science has truly been a pleasure. They’ve been extremely organized and were very invested in building out an informative and useful website for their department. We worked primarily with associate professors Cindy Kam, Josh Clinton and Elizabeth Zechmeister. One thing I appreciated most about working with PSCI: they...Posted by Lacy Tite on August 20, 2010 in Launch, A&S, google calendar, mysql, omni, php, political science
We worked with CSDI co-director and assistant professor Josh Clinton on migrating the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions website. Previously – this was a site maintained manually with no centralized content management system. Within a two weeks period, we moved the content into Omni, redesigned it with a new color scheme, banner, slider...Posted by Lacy Tite on August 20, 2010 in Launch, A&S, google calendar, mysql, omni, php, political science

We worked with the Latin American Public Opinion Project on migrating their site into Omni. This is a half-Omni, half-Sitemason site. Most of the pages are in Omni — but the datasets and logins remain in Sitemason (with the new look applied). This is the fourth site we’ve worked on with the Department of Political...Posted by Web Communications on August 20, 2010 in Launch, A&S, omni, political science, sitemason
We worked with Don Brunson, assistant dean of the Graduate School, to update the look of the Vanderbilt University Enhancing Diversity in Graduate Education (VU-EDGE) site. We moved the site into Omni and created a custom banner for them. Their old site was all one page, made to look like 13 different pages through div...Posted by Beth Fox on August 18, 2010 in Launch, graduate school, omni, vu-edge
Loved working on this site! CFT wanted to combine three separate sites they were maintaining into one with the new CFT website — their existing website, the CFT Podcast and the CFT blog. They had been maintaining the existing site entirely in Dreamweaver and were very happy to start using a content management system. We migrated...
We had a quick turnaround request from Undergraduate Admissions – their webmaster was going on leave and they needed to be in a system that would allow several users to update the site in his absence. With the workflow they needed – several editors, one publisher – we knew Omni was the perfect solution for...Posted by Lacy Tite on August 8, 2010 in Launch, admissions, omni
The Vanderbilt Center for Nashville Studies needed a quick turnaround for its website – and our Omni CMS delivered! After 30 minutes of Omni training, Whitney Weeks, the VCNS director, was making updates like a pro.Posted by Web Communications on August 7, 2010 in Launch, omni, vanderbilt center for nashville studies
This was another fairly quick template swap. The old myVU templates were xsl, we moved them over to php, updated some stylesheets, added the VU brandbar, added a new video player that displays videos from the VUCast playlist and launched. We’ll be cleaning up the site over the coming weeks – but our goal was...
