We are thankful to be welcome on these lands in friendship. The lands we are situated on are covered by the Williams Treaties and are the traditional territory of the Mississaugas, a branch of the greater Anishinaabeg Nation, including Algonquin, Ojibway, Odawa and Pottawatomi. These lands remain home to many Indigenous nations and peoples.

We acknowledge this land out of respect for the Indigenous nations who have cared for Turtle Island, also called North America, from before the arrival of settler peoples until this day. Most importantly, we acknowledge that the history of these lands has been tainted by poor treatment and a lack of friendship with the First Nations who call them home.

This history is something we are all affected by because we are all treaty people in Canada. We all have a shared history to reflect on, and each of us is affected by this history in different ways. Our past defines our present, but if we move forward as friends and allies, then it does not have to define our future.

Events feed module

Note that this page refers to home page templates prior to the 2019 university rebrand. New websites will use the rebranded style. If you'd like to update your existing home page template to the rebranded template, contact us.

An events feed module automatically pulls events related to a particular faculty/department/category that have been published to the university's event calendar (events.uoit.ca) and adds them to your home page.

To submit an event to the calendar, fill out the Event Submission form. If an event category for your department or website does not already exist, request a new category so that any events related to your department or website can be tagged with this category when the event is submitted. Event submissions are reviewed by the Communications and Marketing department. Contact us for any inquiries relating to Event Calendar submissions.

How to

Create an events feed module

If an Event feed RSS block has not been created, send a request to Web Team to have this RSS feed created.
On your website, edit the home page (main index page).
Edit the first default Module section or create an additional module by clicking the green plus icon underneath the Module section label.
Select Events feed in the Module type option. An events feed editor section will appear.
In the Feed block field, browse to and select the RSS feed block created by us. Alternatively, we can add this block to the page for you.
Enter the module heading in the Module heading field.
Select the module width for large screen sizes (the default module width for medium and small screen sizes is full width). For each screen size, ensure that the widths for any additional modules before/following this module add up to fill the grid of thirds.
You can reorder modules by clicking on the navy upwards/downwards arrows for each module. Delete a module by clicking on the red minus icon.
