Filtering Public Events For UW Campus Community |
The Public Events Calendar allows you to view Today, a Day, a Week, a Month, or a Year. The current view is highlighted in green in the navigation bar on the top right hand corner of the page. On every view except the Year View, you can filter the public events, choosing which of the events you'd like to see. On every view except the Year View, you will see all the matching events that occur sometime during that day, week, or month. If you move from one view to a different day, week, month or year, the filter used on the old view will be used as the filter on the new view.
