Move the seven Spring 2026 session pages under spring2026/ (history preserved via git mv), rewrite the series hub, add a Fall 2026 season overview plus eight session stubs, and leave search-excluded stub pages at the old session URLs pointing to their new locations (mkdocs-redirects is not a dependency here). Nav nests Fall 2026 first with Spring 2026 as an archive; breadcrumbs regenerated. mkdocs build --strict passes with zero warnings.
Describe the series as meeting twice a month instead of biweekly, and apply the finalized Fall 2026 schedule: session 2 is now Data management for biologists (Sep 22), session 6 moves to Nov 10, session 7 is now R/RStudio and r-bioconductor on RCAC clusters (Dec 1), and session 8 moves to Dec 8. Nav labels and breadcrumbs updated to match; strict build stays clean.
…ation Create the RCAC Hands-On Bioinformatics Workshops hub with the Fall 2026 schedule and wrapper pages for the single-cell RNA-seq (Oct 7, in person) and RNA-seq (Oct 22 & 29, online) workshops, plus an in-person HPC orientation page (Nov 5, co-delivered with Michael Carlson). Wrappers link to canonical Life Sciences guides rather than duplicating prose; logistics carry TODO(arun) markers. Cross-link the series with the Genomics Exchange hub and the workshops landing page, add nav entries, and regenerate breadcrumbs. The former series name 'RCAC Hands-On Genomics Workshops' appears nowhere in the repo, so the rename amounts to introducing the new name. Strict build stays clean.
…cements Reconcile the Genomics Exchange Fall 2026 season, the Hands-On Bioinformatics Workshops, and the biologists' getting-started session to the final schedule: - Genomics Exchange: correct sessions 2-6 dates (Sep 29, Oct 20, Oct 27, Nov 10, Nov 17), mark EDT vs EST per session, add Microsoft Teams registration links and instructors (Yucheng Zhang for sessions 3-4, marked TODO(arun): confirm instructor), drop all "twice a month"/"biweekly" cadence wording in favor of dated schedules. - Hands-On workshops: RNA-seq is one in-person full day on Tue Oct 6; single-cell RNA-seq is Thu Oct 29, 8:30 AM-4:30 PM EDT; both register via luma and link the canonical Carpentries lesson sites with the Summary and Setup page as required pre-work. Remove the two-half-day cohort admonition. - Orientation page retitled "Getting started with bioinformatics and computing at RCAC: a guide for biologists", Fri Oct 30, luma registration, co-delivered with Michael Carlson. Directory unchanged. - Nav: reorder hands-on pages chronologically, rename the orientation entry, quote the Fall 2026 session labels so they render with a space after the colon. Breadcrumbs regenerated. - announcements/: Spring 2026 reference copies plus Fall 2026 announcement copy (one file per public event, two DRAFT- tentative repeats, README with posting deadlines). Outside docs_dir; not built or published.
…nd nav labels - Announcements: in-person registration warning now reads "email reminders and room details"; drop the astral-plane emoji (calendar, laptop, school, link) that the events page cannot render, keeping the BMP clock; fill the RNA-seq workshop time (8:30 AM - 4:00 PM EDT, Tue Oct 6). Spring 2026 archive untouched. - Docs: RNA-seq page gets the same time; sessions 3-4 and the Fall 2026 season table show "Yucheng Zhang, Tufts University (to be confirmed)" as visible text instead of an HTML-comment TODO. - CI: add announcements/** to the prod deploy paths-ignore list. - Nav: quote the Spring 2026 archive session labels so they render with a space after "Session N:" (same fix as the Fall block). Breadcrumbs regenerated.
…orientation pages Remove the recording and materials TODO comments on the eight Fall 2026 session pages and the start/end time comment on the orientation page: each sat beside a visible "TBD" that already says the same thing. The session description and prerequisites comments, the orientation agenda and takeaway packet comments, and the Spring 2026 archive comments are kept; they hold intent with no visible counterpart. No rendered text changes.
…pages Rewrite every sentence that used an em dash (or an en dash as one) in the files this branch created or edited: session and season titles now use a colon or comma, parenthetical asides become parentheses, and trailing clauses become separate sentences or colon-led phrases. Genuine ranges keep their en dash (times, and "January–April 2026"). The Spring 2026 archive and pages this branch did not touch are unchanged.
…ion 5 title - Sessions 3 (Oct 20) and 4 (Oct 27): drop the "(to be confirmed)" qualifier on the session pages and the Fall 2026 season table, and remove the visible first-line instructor TODO from the two announcements and the README note. - Session 5: page title and H1 are now "Session 5: Script to pipeline"; the season table, nav label, announcement title line, and README row match. Breadcrumbs regenerated for the nav label change.
The announcements/ directory (Spring 2026 reference copies and Fall 2026 announcement drafts) is marketing copy for the RCAC events page, not site content, and does not belong in the docs repository. It now lives outside the repo. Revert the deploy workflow paths-ignore entry added for it.

Sets the final Fall 2026 schedule across the docs site and adds the events-calendar announcement copy.
