The site is reached through Departments on the home page. School of Medicine graduates will benefit from the newly developed alumni site, entered from the Medical Center's home page. Alumni can request information such as transcripts or class rosters, among other services available. Before long, they also will have the opportunity to log into alumni chat rooms and compare notes with former classmates the site is currently under construction. Indeed, if cyberspace were physically navigable, travelers would be advised to don hardhats in much of the Medical Center's site.
Construction is rampant.
Brenner Children's Hospital is one such area undergoing extensive expansion. According to Strohl, parents will soon be able to access information on common childhood diseases and parenting issues. Children will be able to take an online tour of the hospital and post their art work, play games and discover links to other fun children's areas at this interactive site now underway. When the construction dust settles, surfers will find all the health information they're looking for at a new consumer health section, a library of more than 450 topics reviewed and approved by a panel of Medical Center physicians. A boon not only for Web surfers, this site will also benefit physicians who want to refer their patients to a reliable source of medical literature on a broad array of subjects.
