Princeton Challenges

Space reservations are a different function and content structure than an event.

  • Can include setup and breakdown time. 
  • Can include more than one room.
  • Sometimes the person in your department who reserves spaces is different from the communications person.

Princeton does not require you to use the centrally supported website platforms.

  • You can make a website with a variety of tools and host it in a variety of places. 

Different names for different things.

  • We don’t share a common taxonomy between departments.
