Skip to comment formA college website, multiple authors, and web standards — how can it be done?
The WaSP Education Task Force asked Jonathan Linczak, webmaster and project lead, about the conversion of Hiram College to a standards-compliant website. Jon had been reading about and using standards on sites he had developed before he landed the job opportunity at the college. He felt conversion to standards was the best way to go.
Noticing that there was a real lack of educational institutions that are moving towards standards-compliant sites, I wanted our site to be an example to others that sure, it can be done at a college or university too.
How did he do it? What challenges did he face? Read WaSP Interviews Jonathan Linczak to find out what he had to say.
