Categories (

required)
Categories are what pull specific events onto different pages across our website.
- If an event doesn't have a category, it will only appear in the main event calendar listing.
- New categories are not automatically set up to pull to a specific web page.
Find category editing in Check categories on the right hand menu.
- Check for your category before adding it so you don't duplicate an entry.
- You can choose multiple categories for a single event.
- Some categories are nested within a specific program. For instance, BBA program has a leadership events category.

Please reach out to the web team if you need help adding categories for your events.
