Calendar

THIS SERVICE IS UNDER CONTRUCTION

The  Calendar service is a university-wide calendar management and scheduling system. It allows you to create an individual calendar and to track appointments and meetings.  Calendars may also be requested to track or schedule resources.  The real power of Calendar comes from its ability to share meetings with others, which allows it to act as a group organizer.

This service will be online later
