Footer

Footers appear at the bottom of every page in your website and contain content that should be accessible to visitors across your website.

Your site has three footers, the University footer, an Interactive Tour footer, and finally your Unit/Department footer. The Unit/Department footer is the only one that you can edit.

University Footer

The bottom footer that has white text on a maroon background is the University of Montana footer. Everything displayed in this footer is maintained by the web team and cannot be altered.
