Accessing your website on the Rutgers Server
All Mason Gross students have access to art.rutgers servers and have their personal domains under the URL: https://artfiles.rutgers.edu/~<username>@art.rutgers.edu.
Type in: http://art.rutgers.edu/~username
You must use index.html as your landing page
Students are responsible for building a website on this URL to present the work (both exercises and projects) done for the class and publish written responses. In the first couple weeks, basic HTML and CSS coding will be taught through in-class workshops, allowing students the ability to create this portfolio website.
