  • ensure reasonable class access for students.
• There is no requirement to schedule classes at a particular time, although it is required that classes are evenly distributed throughout the day and week.
• The Class Scheduling Distribution Summary illustrates the class demand of a department or college.
• The Liberal Education Distribution Summary illustrates the distribution of classes meeting one or more liberal education requirements.
