Student Organization Web Site Development

When you develop a web page for your organization, information may be accessed by colleges eager to build connections with you, prospective students and their families, community service agencies, vendors, as well as the rest of the world! The World Wide Web is a powerful method of communication and we encourage you to explore how it can work best for you. Please read the guidelines for developing student organization web sites prior to getting started. We look forward to having all student organizations represented.

Developing Your Site
  • See the Webmaster's Page and the College Web Site Provider Handbook for links to online assistance with web design and html, including Wellesley Standard for all college web pages.
  • The Knapp Media and Technology Center offers scanners, digital cameras, Adobe software, and more.
  • Keep in mind that all files should be named using lower case letters and should contain no special characters.
  • The URL for your uploaded page will be:
    http://www.wellesley.edu/Activities/ homepage/(name of organization in lower case letters)/(name of homepage). See URLs of other organizations for examples.
  • All text files should have the suffix .html rather than .htm.
  • Be sure the .gif and .jpg suffixes are lower case as well.
Uploading Your Site
  • Your completed site will be uploaded to the server by Information Services.
  • Place all of your files in a folder titled with your organization's name.
  • Drag a copy of your folder into the Activities folder on NTM > Community. See documentation on how to connect to NTM.
  • Once you've put your files in the drop, send a brief email to the FirstClass conference "StudentUploads" with the name of your home page as well as any special instructions.
  • If you need to send additional files prior to seeing your files on the web server, be sure to label your folder with a new name so that you won't delete the contents of the original folder should it still be in the Activities drop.

The staff of IS Library/Digital Technologies is available to consult with student groups about their web sites. Please contact the webmaster for more information.
