From the Judges' Report
A rich collection of stories celebrating 125 years of institutional history from a variety of viewpoints that balance history and aspiration for the future. The site is clean, beautiful, and navigable with a rich set of timelines, multimedia, portraiture, and engaging "Then and Now" photos. Built on a short timeline, the investment in the site resulted in a central digital hub to support and coincide with anniversary celebrations. Statistics indicate engagement of prospective students. There are missed opportunities for better integration of social media.
