Menlo Web Navigation Tips
- Type a phrase directly into the search box in the top right of any page. Typing in faculty/staff names will bring you to their profile (e.g., enter “math” to see links to math department).
- Looking for an event? Go to the online calendar (one of the links in the main navigation). You can choose which categories of events to see by clicking “filter by category”. Additionally, you can search for certain events in the search box (e.g., searching “6th” will bring up sixth grade events). Click on “Subscribe to Calendars” to import into iCal or Google Calendar.
- Menlo on the go! Open Menlo’s website in your smart phone’s web browser and simply bookmark to your phone’s home page. You’ll have access to the directory, the calendar and many other features.
