Who controls your website?

Do students have complete control or must they check with a mentor before posting news or making updates?

[Elgin Clock]

Major design issues, we turn to each other for input and then the students implement new stuff.

Simple updates, strictly student done except for spell checking.

[Roland]

I do. My teammates and mentors trust me to run the whole thing.

Our students control the website 100%. They do a really good job too. When they have questions they ask. We are using Cpanel, provided by www.elstonsystems.com so it gives them alot of tools like MyPHPAdmin to edit databases and makes it real easy.

One of the tech guys who works at our school does it for us. He actually helps out a LOT with team stuff, but he isn;t actually on the team persay... Weird. Check out the site. (Granted, it's pretty brand-new still, but it still kicks butt in my book)...

I have complete control. A mentor might censor me after the fact, or suggest changes, but when it comes to posting stuff, there is no looking over the shoulder. Our site is student hosted, student designed, and student maintained through and through.

we have our student, jon as our webmaster if there is major changes w/ the design then it goes through our adult-- gary dillard-- but otherwise yeah students maintain our site and forums

Your team has the students build and update the entire webpage, not to say that they don't help. If we have a prolem there is always someone there for guidance. We also have a system where our site is built in a Development folder, approved by a majority of select mentors, and then moved into the production area. So far it's working great.

1293's is student-built and largely student-run. Our coach might poke his head in to post an update.

I took over the role of webmaster last year after a few botched attempts at a website in the past. Last year, I had a mentor helping me with the cost and setting things up (server,domain, etc..). This year I have complete control over the website and have a few people helping write content. But primarly I designed the website and the only who can upload files.

Our website is entirely student designed, built and run, mostly by myself. Over the course of the next few months, I will be transferring control of the website to the next generation of webmasters to take over after I graduate.

Our site is student built. We have a very experienced linux guru as an admin. Although most of the developers have admin access. We have a very small dev. group (3-4 people) so its easy to maintain.

We have built a basic news-poster out of php on our beta site so all authorized people (officers, reps and board) can post news. We are yet to implement it.

NRG 948's site is run be me (with the help of Mongoose). And since I'm also the Captain, I do most of the announcement and news posting. Students run the site completely, and mentors use it for information.

Ours is student run. Our coaches actually spend minimal time on it. Then there's some behind the scenes brain that does most of the technical stuff (I've never even met the guy >_> ... yes... this does worry me) and there's people like me that moderate our ... scarcely occupied forums.

100% Student Run. There is little adult interference except for the cost of the webserver and other commercial scripts we are interested in purchasing.
