In terms of alignment, both the websites depict a formal style as they have aligned similar things on either right or left of the website page. For the UMBC website, the left alignment for the icons to the various links and the right alignment of the videos and events make it appear neat and easy to follow. For the UMCP website, they have aligned the videos on the top, the news, and events on the left, and the publications and items of interest on the right.
