It was a day of triumph, cheers and collective relief as more than 160 students from 21 nations participated in the University of Delaware's Doctoral Hooding Convocation held Friday morning on The Green.

Bennett said she hopes to grow and integrate the website, which was built using a WordPress system, with social media or apps that can help students get engaged on campus.

“Our old website wasn’t able to grow or adapt to serve the campus, so we’re starting over,” Bennett said. “Now we’re focusing on user needs – what information or resources are people looking for? The new website is still in its infancy, but it will grow as the sustainability program does, with new initiatives, the renewal of the Green Grants, events, internships, etc. Keep checking back for updates.”
