Scheduling update: Check your room assignments for fall (1129) and spring (1133)

Room assignments for fall 2012 and spring 2013 are now available on the Class Schedule. Please review assignments for your department to ensure all classes requiring a general purpose classroom have been assigned. Contact Schedulingwith any questions about general purpose classroom assignments.

Room assignments are subject to change prior to the start of the term. While this usually only affects a small number of classes, the Office of Classroom Management (OCM) encourages instructors to verify their classroom assignment before the first class meeting.

Scheduling update: Course Guide video updates

Based on the low number of Course Guide video files, Academic Support Resources (ASR) has permanently discontinued the video upload service. This means users will no longer be able to upload videos with their Course Guide descriptions. Videos that have already been posted will continue to work whenever the same instructor teaches the same class, until it is removed by the department or the instructor.

Instructors will still have the option to upload a syllabus, photograph, and biography. Course Guide questions should be directed to the SR training team.



Scheduling update: Willey Hall auditoriums offline for summer 2013

Willey Hall auditoriums (125 and 175) will be offline for summer 2013 repair work and furniture replacement. As these are the Office of Classroom Management's (OCM) largest auditoriums, plan your course and event activity accordingly.

Scheduling update: Are you offering that class?

There are a large number of classes in the fall 2012 and spring 2013 class schedules that have a room assignment but no enrolled students. If you do not plan to offer a class, cancel the class in ECS as soon as possible.

Changing the enrollment capacity to zero and checking the "no print" box in ECS will not release the classroom assignment. Notify Scheduling if you cancel a class.



Scheduling update: Notes in ECS - Please check your work!

Remember to verify all class notes for your department on the Class Schedule. Class notes from ECS populate in the Class Schedule and roll forward each term. Be sure that the notes associated with your classes are still applicable.

Scheduling Update: Room assignments for fall (1129) and spring (1133)

Room assignments for fall 2012 and spring 2013 are now available on the Class Schedule. Please review assignments for your department to ensure all classes requiring a general purpose classroom have been assigned. Contact Schedulingwith any questions about general purpose classroom assignments.

The Office of Classroom Management (OCM) only finds a general purpose classroom for classes with a blank Facility ID in ECS. If the Facility ID field is populated, OCM is not actively looking for a classroom for your class. This includes being populated with a virtual space, such as ROOM000TBA or AHCROOMTBA.

Room assignments are subject to change prior to the start of term. While this usually only affects a small number of classes, OCM encourages instructors to verify their classroom assignment before the first class meeting.
