Calendar Help

The College of Education Calendar has multiple options for viewing events going on in the college. Below is an explanation of what each section does.

Calendar Navigation

This is the portion in gray and blue gray above the main calendar. This is where you can customize what information the calendar shows.

Current Calendar View

The "Current Calendar View" is the top most line in the navigation and it has a blue gray background. This section describes what you are looking at in the calendar. There are 3 main pieces of information within this line separated by ":".

1. Office you are currently viewing
2. Category you are currently viewing.
3. The current calendar view, either the traditional calendar or a list.

Help Link

The "Help" link brings you to this Calendar guide.

Offices Form

The "Offices" form allows you to switch in between different departments and offices within the college. To use this form:

1. Select an Office from the Drop Down select list.
2. Click on the "Go" button next to the form.

This will refresh the page with the selected Office information.

View Links

The "View" links allow you to switch in between the traditional calendar view and a list view of the selected events.

Next / Previous Month Links

The "Next" and "Previous" Month links allow you to move in between the months of the year to see up coming

Category Form

The "Category" form allow you to select a specific category of events to fine tune your view. The College of Education has a group of standard categories that are shared across the multiple offices, but each area is also able to have their own categories unique to their program.

If you are viewing all offices, then you will see all the categories within the College. However if you are viewing a specific office, then you will only see the categories available to them. Meaning they will have the standard college categories and any office specific categories they created.

To use the Category Form:

1. Select a Category from the Drop Down select list.
2. Click on the "Go" button next to the form.

This will refresh the page with the selected Category information with respect to the previously selected office.

Calendar View

At the top of the calendar is the column heading with the Day of the week stated. The calendar view is setup like a traditional calendar.

For each day in the month, the calendar cell has a bold number at the top of a cell. If there are events on that day, they will be listed below the number. A maximum of two (2) visible events are visible for each day. If there are more than two events that day, then a "More Events" link will appear that will allow you to see all the events for that day.

An event shown on the calendar will show the Title of the Event, Details Link (if there is more information) and a URL Link that will send you to the website provided on the details.

List View

The List View of the calendar will provide a list of the events for that month. All events for a particular date will appear within the month.

Event Detail

The Event Detail page will give you detail about a specific event. These details can include:

• Title of the Event
• Description of the Event
• Event Dates
• Event Times
• Location
• Cost
• Who it is sponsored by
• Website Address
• Contact Information
