You are so right... layering, encapsulation, and not-reinventing-the-wheel are (some of) the things that computers are based off of. There is nothing wrong with using a CMS- it reduced the time-to-completion by a thousandfold than if your students had coded the site from scratch.


i wouldn't call it 100% yours because of the CMS thing, but i definitely give you a 100% for the heavy modding that went into it.
