Puget Sound Website Guide

The Office of Communications is charged with supporting and managing the institutional identity of the University of Puget Sound as a selective national liberal arts college. The institutional website is a primary publication of the Office of Communications, with dynamic content contributed by more than 100 content management system users across campus. Although the primary audience for the site is prospective students, the site also seeks to meet the needs of current students, current and prospective faculty and staff, alumni, donors, community members, and others interested in the University of Puget Sound.

This Website Guide has been developed to assist content management system users and others in maintaining  the integrity of Puget Sound’s institutional Web presence. Please contact the Web Manager in the Office of Communications  with questions or concerns not addressed in this site, or to seek clarification on any Web-related content issues.
