Finals and Room Reservation
Details:
I am a little worried about finals and room reservation. I have been reserving rooms to take my exams in and I have never had a problem but I know of two people in my program that reserved rooms (within the past week) and when they showed up to take their exam, someone was taking an exam in the room they reserved. Is it possible to have the reservation list on the door during finals week? I feel if you printed the schedule the morning of finals, it would be pretty accurate since people are already starting to reserve rooms. Also, maybe you can send out a mass email or announcement to all the programs reminding them that rooms are reservable and to check the schedule before going into a room that is reservable. Thank you.
Answer:Thank you for you the comment and suggestion.
We will start posting the reservation schedule to the Book It rooms again on weekdays, Monday thru Fridays. It may take us some time to get the process into place and start up again, and there are 26 rooms total. We stopped doing this when we added 16 more rooms to the system. Ten was easy to manage. I cannot promise it will be in effect during finals and for the end of this term, but we will try.
Thank you.
