Conference, Meeting or Event?

In order to help clarify communication, Conference & Event Services has come up with terms to help differentiate between the four most common types of programs requested. They are:

Summer Conference 

Any meeting or event that will involve overnight housing with guests staying in ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ Fox University accommodations (May through July only)

Day Conference 

A single- or multi-day event that involves multiple spaces/resources and collaboration to accomplish, but does not include overnight housing

Meeting 

A small gathering that usually does not require a great deal of set up, support, or arrangements

Event 

Any gathering that is not a meeting or a conference

When working with a Conference & Events staff member, it helps to let them know which type of program you are planning.
