UST Web Page Templates
Note: This style guide is to be used for departments that are
using the newest Web site design. Those departments, which are using the
current design, should not follow these guides and should keep making changes
as they have been until they are upgraded into the newest design.
The templates are the foundation for all new Web pages and should be
implemented as part of each section's design. There are three main types of templates:
Home Page Template (Level 1)
Subordinate Page Templates (Level 2-4)
Subordinate Page Templates (Level 5-unlimited)
