some more things to add to our work sessions; the idea of working across departments is really intriguing. admissions, veterans resource center, financial aid, and student accounts, to review the costs & aid “section”

that content strategy statement is something for us to look at for guidance, even though ours will be VERY different.
we HAVE TO give the writing style guide (at least in some version) to everyone who uses the CMS. (great demo of vastly improved writing that came from actual FA staff!)
