Plan 2008 seeks to continue progress
on increasing diversity at UW-Madison. The Vice Chancellor for Student
Affairs (VCSA) needed a focal point for the many campus efforts related
to diversity and a web site would be a prefect vehicle. The site would have to have the
ability to add information dynamically, such as contacts and resources
on campus. It would have to have links to student organization links and
resources off campus. A moderated forum would be needed to encourage
community formation on campus. There would have to be flexibility to
assign others for moderating various forums. Special Events would need
custom forms that could be developed on-the-fly by staff based on needs
of the events. Flexible forms would also bee needed to evaluate the
events afterwards. The new site ( http://diversity.wisc.edu/ ) would have
repository (resource, contacts, videos), forum (middle screen on the
left), event management (bottom screen on the left). The site can also
be easily expanded. The link repository allows staff to make their own
pages in an html editor and use the link repository to manage their web
pages. For more information, call Tech Consulting at 265-SHOW(7469) or send
