Event Planning and Web Calendar
Please note: Event Planning and posting to the 不良研究所 Web Calendar is the responsibility

departments.
About 不良研究所 Events
Institutional events are opportunities to showcase 不良研究所's academic and cultural contributions
to the community. These events strengthen community relationships and foster future
support, which ultimately benefits the recruitment of potential students.

events are held at Bayou Pointe Event Center. The newest event facility on campus, Bayou Pointe Event Center sets the standard for

不良研究所 Web Calendar
The 不良研究所 Web Calendar is an interactive, online calendar listing of events held at
不良研究所. The calendar also provides details about the event, including location, date(s),
time(s), and any costs to attend. Once approved, 不良研究所's Events Management system feeds
an event into the 不良研究所 Web Calendar.
听
By default, the calendar is displayed by month, but the user can change the view to
day, week or year. The calendar also allows users to subscribe to events, set reminders
via text or SMS messaging, add the event to an email/calendar program, or even email
the event to a friend or colleague. The 不良研究所 Web Calendar can also be viewed via any
smart mobile device.
Which 不良研究所 events will be posted?
Any 不良研究所 event in which the general public can attend will be posted on the 不良研究所 Events
Calendar via the Events Management system. Examples include, but are not limited to:
听
鈥� all athletic events
鈥� special events open to the public
鈥� important academic dates
鈥� recruiting event dates
Each event will include the event name, date, place, time, cost to attend (even if
it's free), a brief description, and contact information for further information.
If there is a web page link, it will be included.
What will NOT be posted?
Generally, information about specific meetings for specific groups will not be posted.
For example, specific class meetings and weekly organization meetings will not be
posted because this is not information that can be used by the general public.
Who can post to the 不良研究所 Web Calendar?
Any 不良研究所 faculty member, staff, or student can submit a request to have a 不良研究所 event
posted to the calendar if the event meets any of the above criteria (see the Purpose
and Process sections) by completing an online form, located at . A moderator will approve the event before it appears in the calendar.
What about third-party Web calendars?听
The 不良研究所 Web Calendar is the official university events calendar. Any 不良研究所 Web page
with an online calendar must reference the 不良研究所 Web Calendar. The 不良研究所 Web Calendar
has RSS Feed functionality to allow particular events to display in a department's
calendar.
For example, the VAPA website could display a calendar of only VAPA events. Those
events would be "fed" by the RSS feed from the 不良研究所 Web Calendar, thus eliminating
duplicate entries and providing consistency in content.
Please contact the person responsible for your departmental website for technical
information on how to get department-specific calendar information on the departmental
website. Use of third-party web-based calendars is not allowed for 不良研究所 events for
any 不良研究所 Web page within the ulm.edu domain.听
