I agree. It saves one character on morning events, but those are far less common than pm times. So the savings are minimal, and adding an "a" would help reduce confusion.

For any event that books any kind of room or equipment, you absolutely have to have an end time so that you'll know when the room will be freed up. And even if no room or equipment is involved, you still really need an end time in order to have a reasonable display in the week view (which shows events graphically as a block of time). Although your request may seem simple, it really doesn't fit in the current design. So just keep entering end times -- that will help people have some idea when an event, which is helpful information.

It doesn't default to 8am. When you post an event in Month view, it defaults to the next full hour after the current time. You posted at 7:25am, so it would default to 8:00am if you were working on the calendar at the same time. The way around it is to use week view -- then you can click and drag a time range to select exactly the time you want as you create a new event.
