Faculty, staff asked to provide input on Auraria class schedule revisions

The University of Colorado Denver, Metropolitan State College of Denver and Community College of Denver on the Auraria Campus are seeking input from students, faculty and staff regarding recent changes to the class schedule grid.

In the spring 2011 semester, the class schedule grid changed to gain additional class periods during the busiest times of day: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.  This change meant the typical evening class was rescheduled from starting at 5:30 p.m. to instead start at 5 p.m.

The Auraria Campus schools are considering changing the start time of the evening grid back to 5:30 p.m. The administration is seeking input on how this change might affect schedules. Moving the evening grid start time back to 5:30 p.m. would result in a break between classes from 5 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and would cause all subsequent classes to move back 30 minutes.

The campus partners have prepared a short survey on this possible class schedule shift. Please take the survey now by using this link: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/cudenverschedule. The survey will be open until 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 21.
