[Deptheads] Regarding Location listing in events

[Strategicon Department Heads]

Thanks for all that, by the way! I started using Plaza Foyer.

Also, Whenever I submit an event it defaults to Bel Air regardless of what
type of event I set up. Do you mean that on the "back end" it will change
it to the dept default, or that the person submitting the event should see
the Location change?

Cheers,
tomer
