Today we noticed a Very Important Change to the Pratt SILS site. This change was most likely undertaken to make the site more navigable. It sort of does, but it also perfectly encapsulates everything that is wrong with The Dean’s approach to the site.
This change? The addition of frames. It has the benefit of simultaneously making the site a bit more usable while thrusting it firmly into the year 1995.
Let’s be clear here. This is a good change, as far as it goes. But it’s not enough. The site needs a complete overhaul, not a band-aid approach. And it doesn’t look like The Dean will ever let this happen. Worst of all, the frames aren’t even present on every page. In some ways, it makes the navigability of the site worse, not better.
This is your site. This is how our school is being represented to the world. Are you embarrassed yet?
