Posts are usually listed in reverse chronological order on an archive while pages are "static" and consistent. Therefore, posts should be used for things like announcements or event information that is time-sensitive or expires its usefulness, while pages should be used for information that should always be easily available. 


Post Examples

  • Announcements
  • Upcoming Events
  • Blog

Page Examples

  • Contact Information
  • Academic and Athletic Resources
  • Tuition and Enrollment Information*

*Even though the information on this page might change (tuition amounts, dates, forms available, etc.) the page itself is something that most people will consistently look for. Therefore, you should make this information a page and then update the content on the page as needed.
