Writing Program Websites

We're redesigning our FYC website. Anyone have suggestions about good ones? (WPA-L, 9/25/09):

See Colorado State U: http://writing.colostate.edu/, for a rich site
with many resources, including a writing studio for teachers and
students to create/complete assignments, swap drafts, keep blogs and
more.

See U. of Alabama: http://www.as.ua.edu/fwp/welcome.html for a program
that outlines its outcomes, explains its courses and curriculum. This
is clear, easy to navigate.

UMass Amherst's program has a great site as well:
http://www.umass.edu/writingprogram/ with a good mix of news, course
info, resources.

I really like mine (!!):http://www.montclair.edu/writing/ at Montclair State University -- it hosts all things writing "Writing at Montclair" -- the first-year writing program, the Center for Writing Excellence, graduate programming in writing, the graduation requirement in writing. Teacher and student portals.

You might look through the list of program websites here:
