The navigation menus of the LFCC Web site have been updated making it easier to distinguish between a “parent” and “child” page. On any sub-page, a parent page will appear in bold and bullet points will appear next to the sub-navigation (child) items in the menu.
You can now connect with Lord Fairfax Community College (LFCC) on your favorite social media networks. An official fan page on Facebook, a Twitter account and a YouTube account have been set up for the College.
In addition, icons for each of those social networks have been added to the home page of the LFCC Web site, making it easier to find and connect with LFCC. Read more…
Two new features have been added to the employee directory:
These changes will make it easier for visitors to use the employee directory, and also allow the webmaster to begin linking to individual employees throughout the Web site (rather than repeating contact information throughout).
The home page has been updated again. This time, we have updated the way the latest news releases are displayed in the bottom-right area of the home page. In addition to the news release headline, a short excerpt from the news release is now displayed with the headline.
In addition, we now have the ability to publish these excerpts from our news releases directly to the official College Twitter account, so you can keep up with College news from within your Twitter feed.
Contact information has been added to the lists of course descriptions. Now when you view the list of course descriptions for a specific discipline, a list of faculty members will appear on the left side of the page. The list of faculty members is based on the information provided in the “disciplines taught” section of the employee directory. For instance, if you view the list of biology courses offered at the College, you will also see a list of the faculty members who indicated in their employee directory entries that they teach biology.
The home page of the College Web site has been formatted to allow six static promotional items in the bottom left area, rather than the four that were previously displayed. In addition, the colors of the home page and the list of recent news releases have been improved. Read more…

Throughout the Web site, wherever the physical addresses for any of the College locations appear, those addresses now link to a Mapquest Web page showing where the address is located and allowing users to easily obtain personalized directions.
The style sheets used to control the appearance of the Web site have been improved and enhanced. In addition to some stylistic changes within the style sheets themselves, the content management system (CMS) has been updated to allow these style sheets to be cached, which will help improve the speed and performance of the Web site.
