At this time, we are continuing to work on getting classrooms assigned for fall. Classroom availability for large lecture halls is very limited. We may not be able to accommodate enrollment capacity increases or meeting pattern changes for certain times of the day. Please check with ocmsched@umn.edu before making any changes.
As a reminder, OCM only works to find general purpose classrooms for classes that are lecture or discussion sections with a blank Facility ID in CCS. If a class is typically held in a specific departmentally-owned classroom, please assign those classrooms to those classes in 25Live.
If the Facility ID field is populated, OCM will not actively look for a classroom for your class. This includes populating it with a virtual space, such as:
- ROOM000TBA (room to be assigned) - the CCS scheduler will be adding a departmental or other room to a class section or meeting pattern.
- NORMREQD (no room required) - no room is required for the class section and/or meeting pattern.
- ONLINEONLY (online only) - the class section or meeting pattern of the class will be conducted completely online, so no classroom is needed.
- REMOTE (remote instruction) - the class section or meeting pattern of the class will be conducted remotely, so no classroom is needed.
- AHC000TBA (AHC room to be assigned) - no GPC is needed.
- LAB000TBA (lab section - room to be assigned) - no GPC is needed.
- NO000PRINT - the class section has the “schedule print” box unchecked, and a GPC will not be required.
If a class has one of these virtual rooms assigned and it now needs a classroom, contact ocmsched@umn.edu.
