Once one of the above calendars is added to your personal calendar, you will notice different color-codes for the various events displayed. Note the name of each calendar that has been added to your own calendar on the left-side of the page. Each calendar name is highlighted in a particular color. See Skittles image: skittles

Each event displayed in the calendar window corresponds in color to the calendar-name displayed on the left-side of the page. For instance, if on the left-side of my Calendar page I notice that the Computer Lab Main calendar is highlighted in pink, then all the events displayed on the main Calendar window that are Computer Lab Main-specific will be displayed in pink.

You can chose to display or not display the events corresponding to a particular calendar simply by clicking on the name of the calendar itself. If you click on it once, the events for that calendar will disappear and if you click on it again all events for the calendar will once again be displayed.
