New website launch delayed

Editors of the website were informed last week that April 11 is no longer the proposed launch date for a new website. Instead, the launch has been pushed back to sometime later this month.

There are a few more glitches to work out with both our design vendor and our web content management system vendor contracted to implement the new design. Additionally, since the new site requires reworking of existing pages, some department content editors can use the extra time to fix the formatting of their pages.

What’s the hold up?

  • both vendors are not sure what’s causing the second large homepage image to disappear on smaller screens
  • the search box is not functioning reliably on mobile devices
  • a styling fix is required for homepage factoids that have a single digit number
  • navigation menus are unmanageable in the current implementation
  • hyperlinks are not working inside tabs

What are the benefits to waiting?

Besides everything working as it should, we’ll have:
Editors, members of the web workgroup, and two hourly assistants (current and former Visual Communications Technology program students) are working hard to launch as soon as possible. Please stay tuned!

Artist’s Reception – Painting by Molly Magai, Admin (1000) bldg. gallery
Thurs., April 14: 4-6 p.m.
MOLLY MAGAI Poster-email[5]
Molly Magai makes paintings of landscapes dominated by cities, roads, industry, and the living things that inhabit them. These structures, created for human convenience, are very much in conflict with nature. They are also an awe-inspiring human accomplishment, the work of generations of builders and engineers. Most of us ignore these landscapes as we pass by them. Magai’s job as a genre painter is to make you see them, in their destructiveness and their beauty.

Magai make paintings based on snapshots she takes from a moving vehicle. Handicapped by the car’s speed, the camera creates inadvertent effects – unexpected colors, halos, and blurs. She is interested in the sensation of speed, and the way the image is filtered first through the camera, the painter, and the painting.

Free to all Shoreline Community College students, faculty, and staff.
