Neighborhoods

Effective for Spring 2025 schedule building, general classrooms will be assigned based on:

• Maximum teaching load for the course
• Pedagogical needs (non-standard classroom features)
• Time/Day (standard meeting patterns will have priority)
• Back-to-Back course delivery (minimizing movement)
• Instructor physical disability (permanent or temporary)
• Department location

When it comes to department location, we utilize a neighborhood approach. Based on the parameters above, every effort is made to find the closest location to the respective academic department. Each course subject has its own building prioritization sets. 

Example:
History (HIST) Course

• 1st building set (Fretwell, Macy, Denny)
• 2nd building set (Burson, Cameron, Colvard, Friday, McEniry, Robinson, Rowe, Smith, Storrs)
• 3rd building set (Mebane, CHHS, Gymnasium, Woodward)
• 4th building set (Duke, Grigg)
