Footer

All official Northwestern University web pages must have a footer containing three main elements in the following order:

  1. Three links to the main areas of Northwestern's web site:
    Northwestern Home | Northwestern Calendar: Plan-It Purple | Northwestern Search

    HTML Code:
    <a HREF="http://www.northwestern.edu/">Northwestern Home</a> |
    <a href="http://planitpurple.northwestern.edu"> Calendar: Plan-It Purple</a> |
    <a href="http://www.northwestern.edu/search/"> Search</a>

  2. Contact information for the sponsoring department.

  3. The last section of the site's footer must contain the following information in this order:
    1. Date of the last update to the page. (This can be done with a Server-Side Include (SSI). Your server must support SSIs.)
    2. Links to Northwestern's World Wide Web Disclaimer and University Policy Statements.
    3. A copyright notice that makes use of the "&copy;" escape character. This produces the symbol ?. The word "copyright" is insufficient for international copyright law.

    HTML Code:
