This website is the Spring 2004 Senior Project of Neil Greer. The goal of the project was to bring the department's site up to date with W3C web standards as well as a new design with refined navigation. The result is much cleaner code that is easier to change and update, and with CSS new visual designs are much easier to create and implement.
