 * Is there a hack to allow a user to make their event private on the Event Submission
   form on the Front End? I do not allow users to login to the Back End.
 * Also, is there a way to make a user’s private event visible (only) to the user
   that created the event? From what I can see, under “User Capabilities” under “
   settings”, there is an option to allow a user to “read_private_events”. However,
   this setting allows a user to see (all) private events. I want the user to be
   able to see only (their own) private events, not “all” private events.
 * Thank you.

 * you could do this but you´d have to code this yourself.
 * to hook into the right place, you’d use the em_event_save filter and then do 
   your checks there. reference, classes/em-event.php
