• If stuck, start with who you aren’t
Include, but move beyond:• Rich history
• Academic excellence
• Small classes and faculty that really care
• Beautiful campus environment
• Supportive campus environment
Measurements to consider:• Web analytics + traffic statistics
• More qualified admission applications
• Better yield
• Increase in number of gifts
• Anecdotal feedback from faculty + alumni
• Conversions (traffic to specific areas)
Online testing with:• Prospective students
• Current students
• Faculty + Staff
• Alumni + Parents
Focus groups with:• Current students

• It gives you the feeling of what your life will be like attending Bethel...You feel that your Bethel life will continue after you graduate.
• I like what I would call the modern simplicity...It looks new but doesn't overwhelm you.
What do you like least about this design?
