UNIVERSITY CALENDAR PLANNING · Workflow idea

Make important term dates easier to plan around.

Organize term dates and academic events from a university schedule into a clear calendar proposal. Keep the source document beside each date, ask an academic or administrative owner to verify the details, and wait for approval before calendar changes or distribution to students, instructors, or other groups.
