If you see headings with borders and background shading, but there are a lot of “glitches” like text overlapping other text, you probably have Internet Explorer 4.72. (You can check with Help →About.) MSIE 4.72’s support of style sheets, especially for positioning, is really buggy; but unfortunately it overcomes the hide-CSS trick (link verified 2008-10-05) that works with other version 4 browsers. Sorry, I don’t have a solution for this. (One is known, but it would about double the size of the style sheets.) If you like your version of MSIE and don’t want to consider an additional browser, you should still be able to see most of the content of the pages. If this is an issue for you, you may want to use one of the College computers to view or print the pages in question.
