LeBow Slate Event Submission Process and Timeline

Slate events are utilized in tandem with LeBow Events for admissions and recruiting-based events. We recommend publishing an event a minimum of 2 weeks before the event. Please allow approximately 18 business days for a Slate event to be published. Therefore, for an event to be published 2 weeks prior, the process should start 1 month before the event is scheduled to take place.

• If an event requires an email communication: Add 3 additional weeks (includes requester review time).
• If an event requires social media coverage: Add 2 additional weeks (one week for design/content, one week for advanced posting).
• In an event is slated to be boosted on social media: Add 4 additional weeks (two weeks to publish the post, and two weeks to promote it). Also requires budget from requester.

Submitting a Slate Event Request

1. Create an event draft on the LeBow site in the same way you would for a non-Slate event. Toward the top of the page, select “Slate event” and the appropriate drop-down fields. Once all necessary fields are complete, submit the event to Tech Review.
2. Just after submitting an event request to Tech Review through the LeBow site, event managers should use the Word doc template (attached at the end of this article) to request related event add-ons (e.g., email, social post, boosted post). Please note add-ons will add time per the bulleted list above.
3. Attach the completed Word doc in an email and send it to lebowmarcomm@drexel.edu.
4. LeBow MarComm and Web Services will work together with EMSS to review and post the event and any add-ons; event manager will be notified with any questions and after the event is posted.
