Classrooms
● Severely constrained inventory
● Only 12 classrooms for 100+ students
● Registrar’s Office controls vast majority of classrooms in Engineering and the Arts and Sciences
● Others controlled by departments; some shared arrangements
● Faculty encouraged to teach before or after peak time blocks:
○ Try to stay away from 10:10 a.m., 11:40 a.m., 1:10 p.m., and 2:40 p.m.,
○ Especially for large lecture courses (100 or more students)
○ Departments asked to do fair share to spread courses: no clumping!
