As the fall academic term comes to an end, the TCSA would like to take the time to wish you the best of luck on your final assignments and exams! Your relaxing holiday is just around the corner, but remember, you need to wrap up your courses before you wrap up your presents!
In case you need a little help along the way, make sure to take advantage of the supports and services Trent has to offer. We also invite you to participate in the many (free!)

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
"Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system."
