University Usability

I thought the website looked pretty well organized and easy to navigate, but it took Sammi longer than expected to find the information. She seemed confused and unsure where to look for the information I asked of her. When it was over she said that she thought the website was laid out well, but she just doesn't perform well under pressure. She said the website had nice pictures and was very visually appealing. It took her 47 seconds to find the tuition information and 53 seconds to find the name of the school's president.

I conclude that the website is laid out well, but that it isn't super self-explanatory for people who are unfamiliar with finding information on college websites and who don't have a general idea where to look in the first place.
