Classroom Needs

Room assignments are normally available at least one week prior to the beginning of a term. Unfortunately, these assignments sometimes change due to fluctuations in enrollment and audio/visual needs. You should verify your room assignments by referring to the listings on the SCS website. Undergraduate room assignments are posted at http://scs.northwestern.edu/courses/rooms.cfm, and graduate room assignments are posted at www.scs.northwestern.edu/grad/courses/rooms.cfm. Room assignment lists are also posted on the first, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth floors of Wieboldt Hall on the Chicago campus, on the 16th floor of the LOOP Campus, and in the lobby of the Evanston SCS offices at 405 Church Street.

Every effort is made to assign rooms judiciously, taking into consideration room size, class enrollment, etc. It is official SCS policy that instructors may not change classrooms without first obtaining SCS approval. It is the instructor's responsibility to contact students on the roster and notify them of any approved room changes.

Loop Campus Equipment

There is a general copy room by the front desk. Additionally, each room has:

• White/Chalk boards
• LCD Projector
• DVD/VHS
• Podium with Laptop connections with internet
• Overhead projector upon request
• Easels upon request

Chicago and Evanston Campus Equipment

Most classrooms on the Evanston and Chicago campus have TV/VCRs and overhead projectors available. Requests for additional equipment, or a Smart Classroom (technology-enhanced classroom), must be made well in advance of the start of the quarter. Last-minute requests are difficult to fulfill.
We recommend training prior to the first day of class so that you can be comfortable with the equipment as an instructor. Training sessions will last anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour. Email scshelp@northwestern.edu to schedule training.
