What We Do
The Idaho State University website, www.isu.edu, is the Internet equivalent of the "front gate" for the University and is often the source of visitors' first impressions of the institution. As such, the University recognizes this web presence as strategically critical to the University's role and mission as an institution of higher education in Idaho. It is used as a resource by many internal and external publics that are vital to the workings of the university, including: current and prospective students, current and prospective employees, donors, legislators, and community opinion leaders. The Office of Web Communications works with ISU's many talented web publishers and content providers to make the ISU website effectively serve these diverse needs.
