Naming conventions will consist of four pieces. Each piece will be lowercase, and not spaced. There will be 5 sections that will be designated by the first 4 letters:

   * Student Galleries: stud
   * Alumni: alum
   * Faculty: facu
   * Course Content: cour
   * Global Navigation: glob

This will be followed by a subsection, the subsections will consist of the majors and will be designated by the first letter of the major, and there are four majors:

   * General: g
   * Integrated Media: i
   * Journalism: j
   * Film Studies: f

This will be followed by a serial number in case there are more than one of each object:

   * 01
   * 02
   * 03

The serial number will be followed by an extension of the file type. The extensions are defined the limited number of media files we will be accepting and using:

   * Images: .jpg .gif
   * Videos: .flv
   * Audio: .mp3
   * Text/Html: .txt .html
   * Flash: .swf
