Technology and Web Services

The Technology and Web Services Committee addresses technological issues that affect the university community as a whole. The committee will seek to review and simplify online resources available to students as well as provide up to date information to all students via the Student Government web site.

For information on the committee's platform, composition, and workings, please look at the slides from our Open House presentation.

A handy PDF of technology resources both on and off campus, created for the Student Leader Orientation, can be downloaded here.

How to Submit an Event to SLICE

  1. Go to the Student Organization website. Select your organization from the list and click "Go".
  2. Click the "Login with your ONYEN" link on the left side of your page.
  3. Enter your ONYEN and password. You will be returned to your website, and a new menu will appear to the left of the page, called "User Menu".
  4. Click the "Submit an Event" link.
  5. You should now be on the "Submit an Event" page. First, you must select the location of your event, called a "venue". If you have previously entered this information, you can click the "Select" button and select it from the list, or otherwise click the "Submit New Venue" button, where you can enter the information about the venue (location, room number, etc.). Click "Save" in the top-right corner to save your new venue, then go back to the User Menu and click "Submit an Event" again.
  6. The first option on the list asks you whether you want to submit your event to SLICE. Make sure this is set to "Yes".
  7. Create a title for your event. This title needs to be descriptive as this will appear on SLICE.
  8. Select a category for your event from the drop-down menu, which is the category your event will show up in SLICE.
  9. Enter the date of the event by selecting it from the calendar. If this is a one-day event, you do NOT need to enter an end date.
  10. Enter the start and end times of your event. Make sure to enter am or pm after your time! Also, you must enter a time such as 3:00pm as 03:00pm (there must be four digits in your time).
  11. You now have the options to allow registration for your event, to set up a repeating event, or to add an image. This is all optional.
  12. The final step is to add a detailed description about your event.
  13. Click "Save". A page will appear confirming that you have submitted the event.
  14. The event will appear on SLICE within the next half-hour.
