WordPress
Overview
Our clients find WordPress to be a user friendly content management system. We can build you a customized WordPress site or you can make your own using our Cornell Branded Theme 2021. The theme is accessible, responsive and brand compliant. It also allows customization around color, position, layout and content options.
