The redesign of www.clemson.edu and its top-level sites requires a team effort across our campus. OWS and CCIT offer numerous resources for webmasters, as well as contacts available to answer your questions.
Creating and Maintaining Your Clemson Web Site
If you are a webmaster looking to create and/or maintain a site on the Clemson domain and want the use of a content management system (CMS), OWS can make Cascade available to you. Cascade is a Web-based CMS that allows users with a Clemson user ID and Internet access the tools to make Web design and maintenance simple. The benefits of using Cascade include assistance with accessibility compliance, an easy, non-html interface and the use of Clemson templates. Use this online form to request access.

Making our Web site accessible is not just for the benefit of our users; it is a legal requirement. All sites on the Clemson domain must meet Section 508 Compliance. Use the below resources to learn about Section 508.
