After running into numerous problems with ITI's JavaScript I opted to move their code into a new file so I can work on it freely while maintaining the unedited version for reference.
Updated so we're using my version of ITI's JS instead of theirs.
Added a block to replace the one in the view for the teaching dropdown.
Added a hook_uninstall function to delete the featured series block variable.
Removed the nav block display because the custom block I just built replaces it.
