We welcome your suggestions for events to highlight in the
Highlights of campus events, which serves as the
home page for the campuswide calendar of events. Here's how to suggest a
highlight:
First, be sure to submit your event for
publication to the UC Campus Calendar Network using the online form. That way,
the event will be publicized even if it is not chosen for a highlight. Events
are chosen for Highlights based on their appeal to a wide audience and on
the prominence of the speakers in their fields. Events selected for
highlighting must take place on campus. Here's how to request a
highlight:
-
For the online Highlights: Use the online event
submission form and if you want to request that it be a Highlights
highlight, make sure to submit the event at least four business days before
the event takes place. When you come to the section of the submission form
entitled "Calendars That May Publish Your Event," you will find a
sentence asking if you would like to recommend your event as a Highlights
highlight. Click the adjacent checkbox to make this request. As you
fill out the remainder of the form, make sure to include a 2-3 paragraph
description of the event and any important details such as a brief speaker
bio, registration costs, and URL for more info.
The selection of what events to include in Highlights is first-come,
first-served, and if a day already has several highlights scheduled,
future submissions may be declined. Descriptions will be edited. You can
also use the online form to include a digital image illustrating the event.
NOTE: Succinct submissions, rather than lengthy press releases, are preferred.
