Submit an Event

The university-wide events calendar is managed by the University Events department, and only 51���� employees are authorized to submit events. Current students must have a 51���� employee submit an event for them.

Event Images

All event submissions must include an image that meets the following requirements:

• Image size must be 600 x 400 pixels
• High quality (no blurring, pixelation, graininess, etc.)
• Preferably includes no words in the image
• Must be a jpeg or png
• File size can be no larger than 500 KB

For best results in reducing file sizes below 500 KB while maintaining clear, sharp images, use to compress your file.

Begin by ensuring that your image is cropped to the correct dimensions. Then load your image into Squoosh by dragging-and-dropping or clicking the icon of an image with a “+”. You should then see your image displayed in the app. The left side of the window displays the original image and the right side displays a compressed version. The slider in the middle can be used to compare the two.

In the lower right corner, you’ll see settings for adjusting compression, the compressed file size, the percentage reduction in file size and a button to download the compressed image. The compression method should be set to “MozJPEG” (the default). Generally the “quality” setting should be between 75 and 90. The “Advanced settings” don’t need to be changed.

Finally, download the compressed image by clicking on the download icon in the lower right corner.
