[wp-testers] is_page('Education & Outreach')

[Philip M. Hofer (Frumph)]

It accepts page name.

elseif ( in_array( $page_obj->post_title, $page ) )
else if ( in_array( $page_obj->post_name, $page ) )

^ is that space between the second else if supposed to be there? /shrug, 
need to go back to sleep.

Anyways it probably should be using the slug and sanitized anyways.
