Don't forget to save often!
This is the body test.
At the heart of Northwestern traditions is the homecoming event. The Alva community, Northwestern alumni, current students, faculty and staff, as well as prospective students and bands from surrounding areas join in celebrating the Ranger family. Homecoming events such as the Miss Cinderella Pageant for high school senior females, the homecoming parade, band and parade float competitions, Ranger Royalty, and more are all funded strictly through the purchase of Northwestern’s annual themed homecoming button.
First thing to do is find any misspellings or the word "Empty" on the page and fix the words or delete "Empty."
When we're all ready to move to hyperlinks and email addresses, we'll do so together. There are links/emails in various locations below.
Homecoming Page (link to this page using /homecoming.)
Link this text to a PDF by highlighting some words and browsing to find a PDF.

(Once everyone is finished with the above instructions, we'll do the following all together.
Go to the Northwestern website using the Incognito page and copy a short paragraph of text from the /Homecoming page, then paste it below in the next section titled Instructions (don't delete these words...) Valarie will have you try pasting in two different ways to see how that works. We'll use Control - P to paste as well as using the Paste as Plain Text icon from the tool bar.
Then, go back to your incognito page and copy an additional short paragraph or two of information, only this time do so using the "Source" button to copy the source code. You will choose "Source" in your new area, then paste the "code" there.
Once you have three or four paragraphs of text below, use the Photo tool, then browse to find David Pecha's headshot (pecha72.jpg) in the File Browser, select it and wait for instructions from Valarie on what needs to be done inside the "Image Properties" area.

Since its inception, the Miss Cinderella Pageant has provided a means by which outstanding high school seniors can compete in a worthwhile pageant for both honors and awards of scholarship. This scholarship pageant takes place on Thursday and Friday of Homecoming week, followed by the parade on Saturday at 10 a.m. in Alva’s downtown square. The pageant has grown in size and significance in northwest Oklahoma and towns along the Kansas and Texas borders.

Funds from the sale of Northwestern’s Homecoming Buttons are the main source of income for Homecoming.
The button is only $10 and provides entrance to the Miss Cinderella Pageant competition and Talent Night, the football game, as well as discounts and other incentives from a list of Alva merchants during the week of homecoming; it’s more than a $38 value! Each homecoming button is numbered and has a chance to win $500 in Alva Chamber Bucks. The winning button will be drawn during the homecoming football game, and the drawn number must be present to win.
(fix the Homecoming button to be on the right side of the text with the text wrapping around it on the left side.)

Do I have to include my parents' information on the FAFSA?
There are 13 questions on the FAFSA that determine whether a student is “independent” or “dependent.” If you can answer any one question “Yes” and have the documentation to verify the answer, you are “independent” and can skip questions about your parent’s income and assets.
Can I work during the break between semesters?
Any work performed by a student during breaks must be approved in advance by the Financial Aid Office. (link to the Financial Aid page using /paying-for-college/financial-aid
