How to Get Your Event on the Docket Digest
Here are some tips for filling out the "Create an Event" form: When the form opens, you will be prompted to enter some details about your event (such as title, day and time, and room number). If your event is on Zoom, indicate "Zoom" under room number. If you check the box, "Open to the public," under "Access and Features," your event information will be shared on the W&M Digest (a listserv for W&M faculty and staff) and on the event section of the Law School’s Facebook account. If you want to limit attendance at your event to the Law School community and/or the W&M community, please note that in the full description. ("This event is open only to William & Mary faculty, staff and students.") Of special note: You also will be asked to flag your event to calendars before you submit your form. Please choose the "Law School Homepage" or "Law School Events." You can also choose other William & Mary calendars such as Pre-law Advising, Government, and Public Policy (and many others). Please note that it may take up to 48 hours for your event to appear on the Docket Digest. If you enter your event information on a Saturday or Sunday, it may not appear on the Docket Digest until Tuesday morning.
