The Somali Family Services website team pleased to announce the completion of the first phase development on the new Puntland State University website. The new website utilizes cutting-edge content management technology that will enable content to be posted by multiple contributors anywhere in the world. This will contribute to universal education and assist the university in extending beyond "bricks and mortar". Phase I Summary
Looking ahead to Phase II and beyond:
The new website was made possible by volunteers in Minnesota who gave their time, talent, energy and expertise to support Puntland State University, and by the developers of Joomla! Who work hard to make their award-winning open source software freely available to everyone. Somali Family Services board chair expresses his highest gratitude to Sara McDonald who spent hours and hours of her valuable time and talents to design Puntland State University. Sara McDonald born in St. Cloud Minnesota which is 8200 miles away from Puntland, Somalia, but she was up until at 1:00am to design Puntland State University's website in order to meet the website deadline. With a smile Abdurashid Ali stated that "Minneapolis Community and Technical College got a male camel and Sara will get a female camel." |
