Rooms and Sequestered Space

Departments that have their own sequestered space will be able to assign rooms to class sections. Access to the room list will be permission-based, and Schedule Administrators will only be able to assign rooms owned by their department.

Important to Know

  • Buildings and rooms must be added separately in Course Management, the SIS Mainframe, and the R25 database
    • If building and room codes do not match perfectly between Course Management and the SIS Mainframe, the system will not allow a student to register for a class in that building/room.
