<div>Hello all,</div>
<div>We launched our new WP site on Monday, a year in the making. (switched from Ektron)</div>
<div>Everything was done in-house. (I am a one man show here, with the support of our marketing staff)</div>
<div>Everything on the site is new (content, images, hosting, CMS, etc.) - we started with a blank slate.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I still have lots to do, but we needed to launch before the students came back.</div>
<div>Please let me know your thoughts:</div>
