New Look

March 3rd, 2008 by admin

Rhetorica just got a facelift. This is still the location to find the latest resources and news about things the design team is involved in. We’re also going to be pulling in the most recent posts from all of the blogs being maintained under this installation of WordPress MU.

If you encounter any bugs as we tighten up the template, please email me (rncdb[at]uaf[dot]edu) so I know something is broken. Thanks.
