Web Policy Guidelines
The Colby-Sawyer College Web site supports the college’s teaching, research and outreach as an open, accessible and interactive communications and marketing medium.

Site Credits
The current version of the Colby-Sawyer College Web site was designed and developed during the Summer of 2006 by NotLimited New York City— who also conceived and produced the graphic design. Integration and deployment was executed by the tireless Colby-Sawyer Web team and XeniumGroup, specialists in digital business strategy and Internet software engineering, and the developers of the sophisticated back-end service that drives our site.
Since 1999, XeniumGroup, LLC of Hanover, N.H., has provided strategic counsel and website management services for Colby-Sawyer College. Working closely with colleagues in the College's Communications and Information Resources departments, XeniumGroup has helped Colby-Sawyer grow organically from a twelve-page website in 1999 to over 3,000 pages today. In addition, XeniumGroup's hosted website management system, PivotCMS, provides distributed editing capability for over 170 faculty and staff, allowing a cost-effective distributed environment that keeps the website content fresh, accurate, and timely. XeniumGroup and Colby-Sawyer College jointly won the award for Best Education Website in NH in 2004.
