The Met Online

My name is Richard and I am the MetOnline Editor. The MetOnline is being redesigned bit-by-bit, making it cleaner, more Section 508/ADA compliant and better in the process. If you find the MetOnline hard to navigate or not accessible, email me with whatever needs correcting. If Metro students are interested in helping, see the ad on our Help Wanted Page. You can contact me by email: boettner@mscd.edu, come by the office, Tivoli 313, or call 303-556-2882.

NEEDED: Web person by December 1. If you are interested, apply NOW.

Your comments and suggestions are Welcomed!
