Common Questions

1.) How do I start my organization website?

All recognized student organizations may host their websites at the university. All required organization paperwork must be on file and approved by the Associate Director of Student Life & Activities. Download the Website Authoring Request form to begin the process of establishing your web presence. After your form is filled out, you may bring it by SUL 324C or SUL 324E for processing. Processing can take up to 5 business days.

2.) How do I access my student organization website and begin making changes?

Microsoft FrontPage is the suggested method for managing and creating your organization website. Detailed instructions to login to your website are available online.

3.) Do I have to use Microsoft FrontPage?

You may use the software of your choice to produce your web pages. You must, however, use Microsoft FrontPage to move your web pages into your organization account so that the public can view them. This means that there is no FTP available on the servers that host student organization web pages.

4.) I don't have a copy of Microsoft FrontPage software, what do I do?

As a result of licensing agreements between Purdue University and Microsoft, current students are able to purchase FrontPage for $10 in the campus bookstore. You must provide a current schedule and an ID to obtain the software at the discounted price.

5.) I have no experience building websites, where do I begin?

You may request an appointment with a web specialist to learn the fundamentals of building your website. You are not required to know any scripting or computer languages if you use Microsoft FrontPage. If you are familiar with using Microsoft Word you will learn the basics of Microsoft FrontPage relatively easily.

6.) Are all of the user-friendly wizards functional in FrontPage?

Yes. FrontPage Extensions are installed on the server that enable all of the wizards and other special functions available in Microsoft FrontPage such as discussion boards, e-mail forms, and searches to operate properly.

7.) How many student developers can have access to a particular student organization website?

Up to four (4) student developers can have access to a student organization website account. For security purposes each student developer must have completed the Student Organization Member Web Server User Account Request form to have unique permissions to each student organization website account.
