The digital displays around campus have been updated with new functionality to feature campus events and information, and faculty and staff can now submit event and club information for all to see on campus TVs. To help promote your event, create an event in GriffConnect will promote it to all students, faculty, and staff by sharing across the digital displays and Today@Canisius. 

The process requires the use of GriffConnect, a tool our students use that is now available to all. Follow the steps below to submit your event:

  1. Log on to GriffConnect using your Canisius credentials. (Please note if you have not logged in before, it will ask you to complete a quick onboarding.)
  2. To help promote events in Today@Canisius, you must have a department created on GriffConnect. If one hasn’t been made for your area yet, you can create one. 
    1. Creating a group will help you amplify your reach to everyone across campus and give you access to many different resources (attendance tracking, wider audience publishing, communication analytics, and direct student population communication).
    2. If you have any questions or need assistance, you can contact Jason Francey at franceyj@canisius.edu.
  3. Now, going forward, to submit items for the campus digital signage, you will just need to submit a form.
