The Chancellor’s site was pretty quickly migrated into the new Vanderbilt look, as it runs on WordPress.

UCalendar

University Calendar redesigned

The University Calendar is all up-to-date (get it?) with a look that matches the just-launched homepage. We changed the homepage to show all of today’s events (previously, it just showed highlighted events, with an option to view all – confusing).

Progress of the migration of news site data

Once we finally made the decision that we would definitely be going with WordPress as the backend, we could finally start working out the process for migrating approximately 4,000 pages from the old CMS.
