Tips & Good practices

If no image is added, the block will default to a solid grey box.
If you add a link that leaves utahtech.edu, goes to the catalog, or directs the user to a file, make the link opens in a new tab.
Bad Practices
Do not place the Events block in a column block. They will automatically align.
