I am new to Umbraco, and currently transitioning from the hard-core developer stuff. I am a grad student at the University of Michigan, Ross School of Business and I have started to use Umbraco to power my web site. I want to use the site to host a blog for myself and post my coursenotes. It is the coursenotes that are problematic for me. I tried using a BLOG for them but the layout left a lot to be desired. essentially I want to have a News page for each class, and have news items that correspond to the days notes (lecture notes). However I do not want my ecenomics notes showing up on my statistics page (News Page).
Does this functionality exist?
Thanks.

Jeremy,
I asume you are referring to 'News' because you have installed the 'website wizard' package?
My reccommendation is to upfdate the DocType of the 'News' Item to include a field called 'Category' or 'Class' or whatever. Make it a simple text string. Add the info to each of your 'class notes', and then alter the XSLT to only display notes for a certain category
OR
Create separate 'Class' News listing pages, and underneath each class page, put the 'news' items that relate to that class.
Example: Home -Blog -Class1 --Note1 --Note2 --Note3 -Class2 --Note1 --Note2 --Note3
