Event publicity

If you'd like web publicity for a speaker, conference, or other event at Goshen College, the GC Event Calendar may be all you need: You can post a photo, a description of the event, and links to event-related sites. Anyone at Goshen--student, faculty, or staff--may enter an event into the event calendar database. But only a calendar administrator can approve events for off-campus viewing.

Caravel

We are using Caravel as a general purpose content management system (CMS) for many sites at Goshen College. With Caravel, you browse to your site on the web, login (at the lower right of any Caravel page) and start editing your site. Student clubs, among others, are encouraged to build your sites using Caraveel.

• Contact the GC Web development team to see about having a Caravel site setup for you.
• Get started editing with GC's Caravel tutorial.
