The website

Our major project at CEOSS thus far has been to overhaul the website. (You can see it here.) Well, "overhaul" is perhaps too strong a word; we've rewritten everything, but the website design is still miserable. CEOSS paid a design company far too much money, and got an immutable website template complete with misspellings, broken features, inconsistent formatting, and ridiculous layout. There seems to be nothing we can do about this. It's sad that an organization as competent and admirable as CEOSS has such an unprofessional website.

(One example of former text:

"...The course for girls covers every major aspect of a young woman's life, from child development, nutrition and first aid, choosing a marriage partner and the dangers of early marriage, pregnancy and family planning..."

The unfortunate sentence structure says something we doubt they meant...)
