The University Events Calendar is the official system that Drexel colleges, administrative departments, and student groups may use to promote their events. Events can be submitted for review and approval through forms found on the Calendar's Submit an Event page.

Calendar Accounts and Training

Faculty and staff may attend University Events Calendar training to receive an account that allows them to sign into the Calendar application and add events on their own without having to use the public forms. New accounts must be approved by departmental marketing management and will have either Admin or User permissions. Admin accounts may create and publish events with no further approval required. User accounts may create events that must then be approved by an Admin within their Calendar department.

Approval Role

Any Calendar department that receives submissions from a public form or has accounts with User permissions must designate one or more of its Admins as official "approvers." Under these circumstances, all Admins within the department will receive an email stating that an event has been created that requires their review and approval; someone with Admin permissions must therefore assume the responsibility to review these events and then reject or approve them. There is no technical difference between an Admin and an Approver--it is simply an assigned role.

Departmental Calendars

All events that are approved and published appear on the main University Events Calendar. Departments may also choose to add calendars to their websites that display just their own events or those filtered by criteria such as categories, subcategories, or audience. These types of specific departmental calendars can only be added to websites that exist within the Sitecore Content Management System.
