Website Updated! New Merchandise Page, New Layout, and More
As you may have noticed earlier, we re-vamped our website. We also changed the hierarchy of the pages, so you may feel confused about where all the pages are—so we built a Site Map. Visit the site map to see where all the pages are. We also built a Calendar of Events page, a Merchandise page, a fancy new Gallery page, and a drop down menu. If you have any complaints, questions, or suggestions, contact the Webmaster at lucyhan@umich.edu.
