  • New Event Promotion One-Sheet: A helpful one-page resource for members of the University community to use when they are looking to promote events or initiatives. Planning a successful event requires adequate promotion. Outlined on the page are all of the avenues to promote an event to the fullest extent possible. From a listing on the University Calendar, to utilizing the correct dimensions for hanging a flyer in the University Center, reference this Seton Hall branded one-pager for all your event needs.
  • Included in the Event Promotion One-Sheet is a new, streamlined process for submitting information in weekly email communications and monthly newsletters. Submit language in a weekly email to students, a monthly DEI newsletter, or Inside the Hall, among other email sends. When completed by the deadline, this form ensures that your event or initiative will be disseminated to the appropriate audience(s) in an upcoming email send.
