Announcements

2024-2025 General Catalog Releases on April 29, 2024

On April 29, be on the lookout for a new-layout catalog featuring a more compact user interface developed in response to feedback and recommendations from the Advising for Equity Administrative Advisory Committee (AEAAC), advising groups, and campus stakeholders.

New features include:

  • New focus on slimming down content to be focused on a student achieving their degree; removed various content to achieve this goal.
  • New top menu focused on out-of-catalog resources.
  • Updated mid-menu featuring only in-catalog content.
  • A slimmer & more concise submenu (yellow, right-side menu).
  • Updated home page.
  • Updated footer.

More upgrades are coming for 2025-2026!
