Dear CALS Faculty and Staff,

You are invited to take part in a college-wide open house on Wednesday, September 26, 2018 about the CALS Website Rethink Project - a rethink of our entire online presence. Our goal is to begin relaunching new sections of our website in mid-2019 to better tell the vibrant and diverse story of our research, education and outreach.
 
This is your opportunity to find out more about the project, view early website design options and vote on which option you prefer most. Your input will be used to help the CALS Marketing and Communications team and our partner Primacy evaluate how to move forward with the designs and organization of the website.
