This page demonstrates several different ways you can present students (or alumni) on your website. A program may decide if and students and alumni will be presented on their website.
Opening Considerations
Keep these considerations in mind when deciding how to present students (or alumni):
- Who is the information for? Who do you expect to see it, and what do you want them to get from it?
- How many students will be presented?
- How much information will be presented for each student?
- How often do students and their information need to be updated? How will this be done, and by whom?
Page or Posts?
One key decision is whether you want to present your students on a Page (which here can also mean part of a larger page, e.g., Current Students), or create separate WordPress Posts for each of your students.
Presenting students on a Page in static form – whether a simple list, a grid, or in dropdowns – is simpler and more concise. If you’re just looking to list each cohort of your students, a Page is a good option.
Creating Posts for students allows you to really show off your students and their successes. They can accommodate much more information, such as photos, testimonials and stories. They can be presented in a Posts feed on their own Page or as part of a larger Page (e.g., homepage, Current Students, Alumni Outcomes). However, Posts take longer to create and set up properly for a feed. Consider how many students you will have to create Posts for, and how often the Posts will need to be updated.
A compromise option is to present a list of students on a Page, and link from students’ entries to personalized Posts as needed (without configuring a Posts feed). Again, creating Posts for individual students comes with a commitment to maintaining them.
BGE recommendations
The following are offered as suggestions, to be considered in the context of program capacity and goals. BGE can help with setup, but the program is ultimately responsible for ensuring that lists, Posts, etc. are monitored and maintained over time.
- Current Students: A Page with students listed is much simpler than Posts, so for ease of use, we recommend using a Page and letting students request links out to their LinkedIn profiles, personal websites, etc., as appropriate.
- Alumni Page: If your aim is to maintain a growing list of all your alumni, a Page (or a section on your Alumni page) is the easiest way to do so. Use dropdowns by year to keep the list from getting too long on the page. You can list alumni briefly, or copy content from a Current Students listing.
- Alumni Posts: You should also consider that alumni outcomes and testimonials are important assets in advertising your program to prospective students. For this purpose, a feed of Posts about highlighted alumni is more visually interesting and lets you include more types of content, from profiles to interviews to narrative stories. BGE also collects alumni content centrally, and the resulting BGE Alumni Profiles can be integrated into your Posts feed.
- Featured Students/Alumni: If you don’t want to maintain a list of all students and/or alumni, but you have a collection of Posts about notable students/alumni (scholarship recipients, successful alumni, etc.), then you may wish to present a feed of these Posts as a sort of spotlight section, or integrate the posts into a larger program news feed.
List (Page)
Ideal for listing students with very brief information (e.g., contact info, a link to an external profile).

Info Grid (Page)
Ideal for listing students with some information (e.g., research interests, contact info). Challenges: Needs not too much, not too little information to look right; if using headshots, they must be cropped manually to 16×9 to display correctly; if only some students have headshots, you will need to add blank 16×9 images for students without headshots. Recommended to either have headshots for everyone, or for no one.

Research Interests: Ion Channels, Neuropharmacology, Electrophysiology. I am intrigued to apply electrophysiology and learn distinct assays to investigate specific mechanisms of action that could allow the possibility to create novel therapeutic treatments for neurological diseases like Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s Disease, and Epilepsy.
Education: Northeastern University, M.S. Pharmacology, 2023; Southern Utah University, B.S. Biology, 2021
Prior Research: At Northeastern University, I worked in the laboratory of Dr. Diomedes Logothetis on the mechanism by which Protein Kinase C alpha modulates the G protein gated potassium channel in the heart using Two-Electrode voltage clamp technique. I participated in Dr. Lara Milane Pharmaceutical Sciences Laboratory to evaluate treatment efficacy to Breast Cancer Cell Line with the application of Rhodamine and Gold nanoparticles with Verapamil. I worked at Brigham and Women’s Hospital under Dr. Jorge Rodriguez to conduct primary qualitative data collection with end users to define the patient perspectives of telemedicine use with a focus on video visits. The work focuses on identifying the facilitators and barriers to telemedicine, specifically video visits for patients with diabetes.
