Stanford+Connects: Building Custom User Experience on a Solid Drupal Platform

Last year, the Stanford Alumni Association began a series of events to connect Stanford Alumni around the world with a rich and engaging program, including informal Q&A sessions with President Hennessy, micro-lectures, collaborative seminars, and an extensive interactive component. The website for this series of events began with the most basic needs of event registration, and evolved over time into a highly customized experience that mirrors these unique events.

The process of planning, designing, and building the Stanford+Connects site is an excellent demonstration of Drupal's capabilities, both in providing a solid base of functionality and as a framework for extensive customization. We will walk through this process and highlight how Drupal allowed it to succeed at each point along the way, from the earliest planning to the ongoing iterations.
