Frequently Asked Questions

The answers depend on the use of the requested location. The most common are outlined below:


Faculty requests for a new classroom for an academic class; or a special meeting for an academic class:
This request would go through the department scheduler who sends the request to Academic Scheduling. The procedures are outlined in the Classroom Assignments section of this website.


Faculty requests for regular class meetings in a computer lab:
This needs to be requested when the term class schedule is being built – about 2 months prior to the beginning of a new term. This request would go through the department scheduler who sends the request to Academic Scheduling.
