@merenber could probably shed some light about why we are/aren't doing this.

A few months ago, I set Cache-Control: no-cache on the main, news, and events pages because they were being cached by the browser and updates weren't showing up quickly enough.

We can set a more relaxed cache policy on the static assets once the website is deployed.

I set Cache-Control: public, max-age=604800 on pictures, and Cache-Control: no-cache on everything else.
