• : The official University calendar, linked to babyÖ±²¥app websites. Any group is eligible to setup and manage a PlanIT Purple account. Events can be designated for only netID users, fit within specific categories and more.
• : The centralized home of student organization activity, Wildcat Connection allows an event host to designate security access to view event details.
