This sharp, dynamic website powered by the free content-management system Joomla! presents a professional, clean look for PhD candidate George E. Mitchell. This website includes a state of the art administrative side to allow George to add and edit content from anywhere he has Internet access.

Additional features include: a contact form for visitors to submit questions, links to social networking sites like Facebook and LinkedIn, a “Share This” tool on all of the content pages to allow visitors to quickly post content to their favorite websites, Google Analytics, and an interactive photo-navigation scheme on the homepage.

George and I look forward to hearing your feedback on the design. Also if you know of any openings for a tenure-track assistant professor of political science in a town near mountains, I hear he’s on the market soon!
