What is an intranet?
An intranet is an internal website used to securely share organizational information and resources among users.
What are we hoping to achieve by building an intranet?
In alignment with the website redesign project, the intranet will serve as a one-stop shop for internal information. Our goal is to create a space that is easy to navigate, secure, and informative. Once complete, faculty, staff, and students can reference the intranet for news, events, and all things Seattle University.

Site Overview
The intranet is built in SharePoint as a communication site and can be accessed through Microsoft 365. It mirrors a hub and spoke infrastructure, where the main hub site includes the homepages and links out to spoke sites. The connected “wheel” encompasses the intranet.
Homepages: To better connect users with relevant and timely information, we have created three distinct homepages: Staff, Faculty and Student. Users will be automatically directed to their designated homepage but each homepage is accessible to all. These homepages display news, events, and quicklinks that are curated for the intended audience.
Redhawk Hub Content: Content submitted from groups across campus has been migrated, refreshed, and organized into different microsites (spoke sites). You can navigate to these groups using the navigation at the top of the site, or by searching for a specific topic using the global search bar.
