Homepage social media

At this time, we aren’t embedding any social media feeds on the homepage. Instead, we’re simply linking to PCC’s social media channels. We decided the page already has plenty of imagery and content, and that we want to encourage students to explore the PCC website, not exit over to a social platform and get distracted.

Guidelines

We only link to PCC’s four main social media platforms: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

Styling

The social media links are only the platform logos, displayed in a row. When hovered on, the logos grow in size and change color.

Responsive behavior

The logos are in four columns on large and medium screens, and two columns on small screens.
