This snippet is used to create stylized level 2 or level 3 headings, including the Graybar, Bar Separator, Top Title, and Top Title w/ More Links. These stylized headings can be used in place of a regular heading 2 or heading 3. Except for special uses of the Bar Separator, you should be consistent with the style of a heading level you use throughout a webpage.
Snippets are inserted into an Editable Region to create styled widgets. From the toolbar, click the Insert Snippet icon. 
Snippets can be added directly in the region or often nested within other snippets.

With a decentralized model for web maintenance at Michigan Tech, each department is responsible for creating and maintaining its own website within the University’s requirements. University Marketing and Communications provides a content management system (CMS) for many departments on campus along with several resources for using the CMS, web best practices and strategies, writing guidelines and standards, and brand management. There are also external sources available for further professional development.
Digital Services in University Marketing and Communications hosts a Digital Marketers Meeting every other month. Digital Marketers is a group for digital platform managers (digital ads, photo/video production, social media accounts, websites, etc) across campus. Our discussion is focused on digital content production and best practices. We also provide a great setting to stay informed and plug into recruitment and reputation initiatives spearheaded by University Relations and Enrollment.
