COC Graduate School blog reviewed

Filed under graduate school blog reviews, September 13th, 2009 by Graduate Admissions Assistant

The Graduate School Blog talks about anything and everything concerning the College of Charleston.  The blog contains a variety of entries ranging from the scheduled activities to bike protection tips.  The Graduate School Blog is the fruit of collaboration of some students of the College of Charleston.

Things I like about the site

There are lots of things to like about this site.  One is the design.  The color of the site is refreshing to the eye.  The layout is also good.  It seems that the blog provides a lot of options for visitors.  The blog actually gives me an impression that there’s so much to do in this site.  Although there are lots of buttons you can choose, the site is easy to navigate.  Another thing I like about the site is its content.  The entries are written by different writers, but it’s interesting to note that the entries share the same tone.  That is, they’re all exuding joy and enthusiasm.  Reading the articles gives me an impression that the writers are really enthusiastic about their college life and everything concerning it.  There are also images and photos that are very interesting as well.

Things I don’t like about the site

I think the weak point of the site is in its categories.  I got a little confused about the category sections.  There are actually two category parts I see in the home page.  I just got a bit confused as to why this is so.  What’s the purpose of the category part in the lower area of the site?  Is it for older posts?  If yes, then the blog should make it clear.  Changing the label could remedy the problem.  Aside from this one, I don’t see any major problem with the site.  I think it is good; it just needs to be a little bit clearer when it comes to labels.
