Academic Scheduling & Space Management (AS&SM): University Lecture Rooms Events, Culminating Activities, & Final Exams

The University Lecture Rooms (ULRs) vary in size, furniture, technology and are located in various buildings throughout the campus. Academic Scheduling & Space Management (AS&SM) manages these spaces in accordance with the ULR Guidelines. Updated classroom layouts are now available in the ABSO Hub for your reference.

Reserving Classrooms for Events & Scheduling Priority

Campus departments may reserve ULRs using the AS&SM ULR Request Form. All ULR Requests with one or more off-campus guests require a signature from the College Dean/Vice President (or their designee).

Recognized Student Organizations (RSOs) must submit event space reservations directly through Student Union Event Services (SUES). Each term, AS&SM allocates a specific number of rooms to the Student Union for RSO activities. To receive a ULR room assignment from this allocation, the RSO president or treasurer is required to submit the request through SUES. AS&SM will not process department reservation requests made on behalf of a student organization.

While departments or colleges may grant RSOs access to their managed rooms, an official reservation with the Student Union is required to confirm the booking. All RSO-sponsored events must secure campus spaces directly through Student Union Event Services.  

Fall 2024 Culminating Activities & Final Exams Week

ULRs follow a scheduling priority that ensures classes always have priority over events in all classrooms. This priority is also applied when assigning classrooms for in-person Culminating Activities and Final Examinations.

The Fall 2024 Culminating Activities and Final Exams Week will take place from December 11-13 and 16-17, 2024. ULR requests for final exams (including hybrid classes) must be submitted by Wednesday, November 27, 2024. Requests received after this deadline may result in limited room availability. Please review the Fall 2024 Final Exam Reminders for additional information.

All ULR requests for events scheduled between December 11-17, 2024, will be processed after Thursday, November 21, 2024.
