Swarthmore College uses Drupal, an open-source content management system (CMS), to build and update websites hosted at www.swarthmore.edu.
By default, all Swarthmore College faculty and staff are able to log in and update their profile pages. Further editing permissions, like updating department web pages, are reserved for those who have attended a campus-hosted Drupal training workshop.
For information regarding the next available training opportunities, check the ITS Events page. If you don't see any upcoming training sessions, let us know that you're interested by filling out our Drupal Training Request Form.
