How do I submit an event for approval?

You must have User/Admin access to your organization’s page to access the form. The event request submission must be submitted at least 2 weeks in advance:

  1. Log in to the organization portal.
  2. Go to your organization's page
  3. Click on "Manage Organization" in the upper right hand corner
  4. After the new tab opens, click on the button that has 3 lines next to the name of your organization in the upper left hand corner.
  5. Click on "Events"
  6. Click on the blue "Create Event" button in the upper right hand corner (if this button is not appearing, scroll down to the next bolded question)
  7. Complete the online form
  8. You will receive an email from "Presence" (i.e. Marquee) when your event is approved. This may take up to 3 weeks. You may also receive an email from Marquette staff following up on your request for additional details.
  9. ***You can edit an event after it has been approved by going to your org's page, click Events, click on the Event, scroll down and click on "Change Details". This will then get resubmitted for approval with changes. Do this if you have publicity that was not ready at the time you submitted your request.
  10. If you need to make an edit before the event is approved, go to the MARQUEE main page, find and click on “Your Profile,” select Submissions, find the event you’re looking to edit, and click on the button to the far right that says “Edit.” Be sure to re-save your submission after you edit.

How do I update my roster and officer listings on MARQUEE?

Current officers or primary contacts can complete this:

  1. Log in to your organization's page.
  2. Go to your organization's page
  3. Click on "Manage Organization" in the upper right hand corner
  4. After the new tab opens, click on the button that has 3 lines next to the name of your organization in the upper left hand corner.
  5. Click on "Roster"
  6. Click on "Invite People" to enter an email address to invite people. The person will receive an email inviting them to join the page. They must click on the link in the email to join the group.
  7. Click on the pencil icons (to the right of a listed member's name) to change their listed position
  8. Select the box left of their name and click "End Membership" to remove someone from your organization
  9. ***Keep in mind, people must first be invited to the group and accept the invitation to then be listed as a Primary Contact
  10. Only officers with the admin right to add other Users can create other User/Admins for the group. Your organization’s president should automatically have that right.

Step 3: Confirmation

You will receive email confirmation that your event submission has been approved, and that your space request has been finalized. Please reply to requests for more information in a timely manner.
