An event entity (not submissions) should start out with the status "Tentative".
A Staff user may move an event to "Finalized" status to indicate all the program participants approved of the timeslot. This causes the event to be anchored in its timeslot, if it was not already. (The current codebase uses the word "Fixed" to mean "Anchored".)
If the event becomes un-anchored in time, it moves out of "Finalized" back to "Tentative". Anchoring or un-anchoring the room does not affect status.
