Fix Other Pages?
No.
Lessons Learned
Color luminosity is a common problem. Javascript navigation menus can be difficult to repair, and will require making new design choices for the entire site.
Content Access During Remediation
The top level links in the navigation menu lead to pages with links to the subnavigation links.
Long Term Fix
New color choices and navigation menu are needed for the entire Engineering site. The Web Office will work with Engineering to address these issues.
