So for the Berkeley template I had to add the xcolor package so as to use the HTML codes provided by the Berkeley web color palette website.
In general, I imagine it will be easier to find school colors defined in terms of HTML hex codes (#XXXXXX) rather than as floats ∈ [0,1] for the rgb setting of the original color package.
These should always be able to be converted into one another but it'll be an extra step for anyone wanting to modify the template. I vote for a change to all of the templates to use HTML hex codes w/ xcolor rather than rgb values w/ color.
Because this will take some time, I want to check that there is not some reason why they were originally only defined in rgb space that I am unaware of. If there is none, it would seem to have no downsides to make this change.
