Configuring your department page
You can configure some global settings for your department, which will affect the way your department's public landing page and event pages display. To reach these settings, click "Edit department" from your dashboard.
Public information
The fields "Organization name," "Website," "Contact email," and "Contact phone" control how your department appears on public lists. The name will also change what is used in the default name for new events.
The website and contact information will be displayed publicly on your department and event pages, and should be good contacts for students with questions about your events. It is required that you include at least a phone number or email address that can be used by students and faculty to contact you with questions about your events. If you do not currently have a phone or email address listed for your department, then beginning mid-Spring 2025 your coordinator names and email addresses will be listed publicly instead.

Page content
The "Department page content" field allows you to post any content you like on your department's public page. You can use this to head off frequent questions or provide more information that you think may be relevant. Some suggestions for questions that frequently come up:
- Do you typically have convocations every semester, or only in the Spring or Fall?
- Do you require students and/or faculty to wear academic regalia?
- What do students need to do to ensure they have a pending degree record in Banner so they can RSVP through this site?
