Contents of _site not generating same page as jekyll serve?

On the jekyll website the instructions to deploy the website is the following,

    simply run the jekyll command and copy the generated _site folder to the root 
folder of your hosting account.

When I copy the _site folder to public_html on my university webserver, I do not get the same page that I was getting when I ran jekyll serve locally. In particular, it appears the css was missing.

Do I need to copy something else to deploy the website?

Your assets (css, js, image) are certainly missing some path.

Your _config.yml should content baseurl: /yoursite/path your site url is on the form : http://youruniv.edu/yoursite/path/.

And calling your assets should be done like this :

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ site.baseurl }}/css/styles.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="{{ site.baseurl }}/assets/javascripts/scripts.js"></script>
