Brandt Merritt replied to Claudia Snell's discussion Tweeting Presidents?"Ours posts everything himself. We also have a couple of VPs who do the same. But we're smaller, only about 2,500 students, and our president also had his Twitter account going before he took over."

WordPress as Course Catalog
We've just launched our newest feature - The 2009-2010 Catalog - Department of Graduate and Professional Studies. It's all built in WordPress. Check it out: http://content.nichols.edu/course_catalogs/gps/
The new site uses a plugin to manage the sidebar navigations - Page Lists Plus - see that here: http://www.technokinetics.com/plugins/page-lists-plus/. Other than that, it's a standard WordPress install with custom built theme.

An Event Apart, Boston - anyone else go?
Last week I attended An Event Apart, Boston (http://aneventapart.com/). It was excellent.
For any that weren't able to attend this year, you can read A Feed Apart (http://afeedapart.com/). It's an unofficial feed aggregator of the twitter posts of attendees while the event was in progress. There are also photos posted on Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/groups/aeaboston09/).

Barb Iannucci replied to Eloine Chapman's discussion Should we migrate to https?"Yep, I got the same messages. Some of our sites use SSL and we've been talking about migrating all the rest our sites for a while now. I suspect we will be doing it rather than just talking about it sooner rather than later now. :\"
Eloine Chapman posted a discussionShould we migrate to https?
I recently got a notice from Google that in October 2017 Chrome V62 with show the warning "NOT SECURE" on all our web pages we have a input field for search. Since on most of our pages there is nothing that would require secure information I've never felt the need for HTTPS. Our class registration pages are secure but not the general information pages. The warning is going to scare people though. Are others upgrading their websites?See More
