To announce and promote events in the Nestwork, we’ll be using the Modern Campus Involve software solution which is designed to bring clubs & organizations – including university departments and offices, event processes, and online forms – to create a simple, standardized digital experience for users who are looking to engage with each other.
On our campus, Modern Campus Involve also serves as the unified calendar for student organizations, campus-wide happenings, and departmental events such as lectures or presentations. Essentially, it’s the system that feeds our events calendar on the University home page at westfield.ma.edu.
NOTE: The Westfield State EMS system should still be used for all room reservations and requests. This system can be accessed from myWestfield through the link “Event Space Request.” When you’re planning your event, start with EMS to make sure you can get the space you want to use. You’ll then use Modern Campus Involve to promote your event to the Westfield State community. Keep in mind that EMS is the University’s system of record for all emergency purposes. If we have an emergency, first responders will use EMS to identify where people are located, so it is critical that all events and meetings are entered into the EMS system. If you need assistance learning how to do this, contact Director of Events Management, Joanne Bigelow:
