Johns Hopkins Policies Concerning the School's Calendar of Events

Note: The weekly Calendar of Events email goes out Friday afternoons. Calendar items must be submitted via http://commprojects.jhsph.edu/event.cfm no later than 4 p.m. on the Thursday prior to the event.

What Events Are Appropriate for the Calendar and the activities-l Listserv?
  • All events announced on the calendar and on the activities-l@jhsph.edu listserv must be sponsored by the School of Public Health.
  • These announcements must originate with the faculty, staff or students of the School.
  • Events from other University divisions may be announced, provided there is a co-sponsor from the School of Public Health.
  • Only authorized student organizations may list events on the calendar and send emails via the School of Public Health activities-l@jhsph.edu listserv. An authorized student organization is one that has been officially recognized by the Student Assembly after going through their recognition process. A list of these authorized organizations can be found at www.jhsph.edu/Assembly/student_groups.html.
  • The calendar may be used to announce special events only. Ongoing, routine meetings may not appear in the calendar because of the volume of such meetings.

    How to Post an Event to the Calendar
