Room scheduling

The registrar schedules GPCs, or general purpose classrooms, for campus units. Our GPC lists include seating size and available media.

GPCs by semester

Final exams.

When scheduling final exams, we consider the rooms' exam capacity, usually about half the normal capacity, to allow for double-seating -- an empty seat between each student. Because seating configurations vary, exam capacity may not be exactly half of the total number of seats. Due to the demand on exam rooms, we are not always able to provide double-seating in all exam periods.

Our lists don’t include departmental rooms, those controlled by other campus units. We will only assign departmental rooms for final exams upon an explicit request by the department (since we neither know nor control the availability of these rooms). We also don’t schedule rooms with seminar tables, marked SMNR in our lists, for final exams except upon request. » Get our current GPC exam capacity list.

Faculty and staff use.

Faculty and staff may find rooms via our room scheduling system, and may then call to make university reservations of general purpose classrooms. To gain access to our system, attend our one-hour training session by signing up for TXClass RG 400. Call our office for more information at 475-7600, Mon thru Fri from 830a to 12n, and 1 to 430p.

Student use.

To use campus facilities, registered student organizations must contact the Dean of Students’ Student Activities and Leadership Development (or SALD) (previously known as Campus and Community Involvement).
