Insert an Internal Link

When you link to a page (or file) that is on the Willamette website, and is located within Cascade CMS, it is called an internal link.*

*Note: Some Willamette web pages are not located in Cascade CMS, including pages on the Athletics and Hatfield Library websites. Set links to those pages as external links.
