I know this reply is more than a year after your post, but here goes.
I started using GA on our institution's website in July of 2006, and all of those stats are still there.
Your post has got me thinking that I need to check into the length of ...
We are a small, two developer web team. We host off-site and the original motivation was necessity as our IT department wasn't equipped with enough resources to handle 24/7/365 support for the web servers. We began with one out-sourced web server ...
I've been considering going offsite for the past 5 years. Changes in on-campus IT has made both on and off site preferable during that time. However the Patriot Act contravenes Canada's laws for privacy for Higher Ed, so any USA hosted solutions a...
As our campus has such a decentralized web presence there is a little of both. The vast majority is hosted internally but there are a few departments and other groups who choose to host off-campus for various reasons.
As to thoughts on the matter...
Looking at moving homepage for 20,000-student public university to external provider... advice? Am conducting call with Rackspace rep tomorrow.
Well there was http://ratemycollege.us/ for a while but it then merged into the CollegeTimes site:

College Prowler was the other was I was going to mention but looks like someone linked it.
This topic has come up for discussion again on my campus. Any other sites to add to the list?

Now, I have to be like. Look this is cool. Yet, somehow deflect the questions about how come "we" don't have that. This is going to be a sucky day.
Nice video though!

I've gained a lot from looking through the thread on university social media policies, but there's an area I don't see covered that I'm wondering about. At my institution, we've had a few episodes of inappropriate interaction between faculty & stu...
Take a look at what we're doing over at nuCloud for folks. Got Belmont, USC Upstate, and soon Anderson launched on our interactive map platform. It's basically designed to be cheap and easy with very fast turnaround. Fire off an email to info (at)...
Wondering if anyone can share anything about using external parties to produce a virtual campus tour? I'm looking for costs and issues -- what're the benefits of going external vs trying to produce inhouse? What are the drawbacks?
Many thanks for ...
Share your experiences using OmniUpdate CMS
Thanks for the news! And thanks to both Terry and Mark for making this possible.
Hello,
I'm the webmaster for a community college who is responsible for managing, maintaining and developing our institutional website. We currently have 65+ staff who update content on sections of our website using Adobe Contribute.
I've been t...
We've been running the ActiveCampus portal for just over a year now. Please let me know if you have any specific questions and I'll try to answer them for you.
Thanks, Michael.
Ah, well that makes a pretty big difference. Then I'd say probably about a 15% increase in salary or $7500, whichever is more, unless they're making a pretty big jump up the ladder for it.
We recently decided on Drupal and purchased support from Acquia Drupal. We've been pretty happy with them so far. Great response times and access to free webinars that have been pretty helpful.
There's no real "professional organization" per se yet. The HighEdWeb group had been working on something like that though, but I'm not sure where they are at in that process.
As for conferences, I'd generally recommend HighEdWeb and EDUWeb.
Mark can I also jump on the wave. dladner@nctc.edu
Thanks
As I am new to the higher ed community, I was wondering if as a professional group do we have a professional type organization?
Secondly, is there some type of annual conference for higher ed web developers/designers, where we can get together an...
Excellent! I too look forward to watching the site continue to grow and evolve.. I personally have this site listed as my main contact site than the others. I post and read on almost daily. When compared to the other sites that I look at once a we...
Thank you so much, Michael. That's great information. We already have an internal candidate in mind, so relocating, etc. aren't issues. This person has the required education and experience. With that in mind, what would you say would be fair? Tha...
Ken, actually just got through looking at both CMS. I demoed Cascade Server and then Omni Update all in the same day. I do not think that you could go wrong with either of the systems. I loved both of them. Both are excellent CMS. But after the da...
Without looking in to the cost of living up the Rhode Island way, if I were looking at it I wouldn't even apply for less than $70K (but I figure in a cost of living increase, plus moving costs, etc. I'm greedy, but I also wouldn't move across the ...
Hi!
Thanks. This is Providence College, a liberal arts college with an undergraduate enrollment of approx. 3,8000. The education is bachelor's degree and 7+ years' experience are required. I'm not sure about the budget. This person will manage on...
One, where is this at?
Two, define appropriate. There's "higher ed" appropriate and "competitive" appropriate.
Three, how many people is the position in charge of?
An adjunct to UWEBD. UWEBD has been in existence for more than 10 years and is the very best email discussion list on the Internet, in any industry, on any topic.
