Implementing Cal Poly Web Page Templates

The Cal Poly Web Authoring Resource Center (WARC) provides developers of Cal Poly official

web sites with the information and tools necessary to plan and build a site that meets basic

requirements for university identity, web accessibility, usability, and aesthetics. In addition, the

WARC provides valuable information on how best to maintain web sites for currency and

efficiency. Check out the WARC web site by opening a browser (Internet Explorer or Netscape)

and navigating to the following URL:

http://www.calpoly.edu/warc/

On the WARC website, you will find a section allowing you to download university templates The

path to the templates page is University ID > Templates from the above URL or directly

http://www.calpoly.edu/warc/universityid/templates.html

By using the university

templates, you are establishing your web pages as an "official" part of the Cal Poly University

web site. The templates have been designed to be consistent with and complimentary to the

recent redesign of the Cal Poly home page and its top-tier subsections (i.e., Students, Faculty &

Staff, Prospective Students, etc.). The templates conform to the university’s “Minimum Page

Requirements” for web pages and were specifically designed for easy navigation and eye-

pleasing appearance after surveys and meetings with campus focus groups. They have also

been designed with usability and web accessibility in mind. You can easily "personalize" them

to reflect your department or group and each layout has been created to provide substantial

"free" space for extensive customization within the body of each template. We believe that it's

important that Cal Poly web pages reflect standards of quality and professionalism appropriate

to showcase the university as what it is -- one of the nation’s best -- and implementing the

templates will assist you in this task.
