Toolkit and Resource Pages

From time to time it is necessary to develop ‘toolkit’ and resource pages when there are unit-wide initiatives to give academic departments promotional resources and/or faculty, staff, and students valuable information. In such efforts, I am typically given copy and, on occasion, media assets. My role is to create an effective page layout and add design elements for an engaging display. A couple of the more recent such pages are highlighted below.
