Website Update and Key Remaining Dates

April 16, 2024

We are excited to share that the final phase of the web redesign is now underway. The quality assurance (QA) phase is a critical one that includes a thorough review of content for accuracy, enhancement of search engine optimization (SEO), functionality testing of links, and ensuring all high impact pages are ready for site launch.

A big thank you to all campus partners who have been working in close partnership with the web redesign team in MarCom on the content migration. We are on track to complete migration of the remaining pages by the end of the month.

Important remaining dates: 

  • April 26: Content migration completed. Access to the new website is restricted to the web team with limited exceptions for select groups until after launch.
  • May 1: The web team begins implementing the redirect strategy for existing web pages to the new site. This important step will help minimize SEO impact when the new site launches.
  • May 13 to June 20: Service level reduction period for the current website. Expect limited support from the web team as we prepare to launch the new site. A small number of exceptions will be made.
  • June 10: Last day of updates or changes to the current website with limited exceptions.
  • June 13: Official launch of the new, redesigned site. 
  • June 20: Web Support Service level restored.

For now, the existing website should continue to be updated as needed. Please continue to follow the most recent content guidelines.
