Hiring: Students and Freelancers
Student workers that have been hired by departments to design sites or add features to departments need to go through an approval process.

1. Before a student creates the new/redesigned site, sketches of the site have to be sent to Cathy Langlais for approval and guidance.
2. When the site is ready, the student can then request permissions to the directory for uploading.
3. Students must send copies of all templates to Cathy Langlais for archiving so sites can be updated in the future. If changes to the site are made, then students will need to resend new templates/source files.

A checklist of steps and assistance will be made available to students as they develop sites.

Departments interested in freelancing projects should determine if they have the budget to pay for a freelancer. If so, the department must fill out a Web Project Proposal. The project will be considered by the Web team (and WMG if necessary) to determine needed support and resources (if any) that the freelancer might need and implications for the Web team.

If/when approved, all freelance site design projects will be managed by Communications and all freelance programming projects will be managed by Information Technology Services (ITS). The department requesting the freelancer will maintain control over and provide all content and features. This will ensure compatibility with Colby Web standards and that technical information is communicated to the Web team to make the technical issues/transistions run smoothly. This will also keep track of resource use on campus.
