What is a region?
A region is an area on a portal page that is used to define the layout of the page. It often includes other portlets and can also contain images, links, text, files and other content for your portal page. You can easily see the regions defined on MyBGSU when you click on the ‘Customize Page’ link in the upper right corner of any MyBGSU portal page. At the top of some regions, you will find a title bar with icons for adding and arranging portlets.
