Naming Conventions for Meeting Scheduler

With the summer release of new meeting scheduler, institutions may wish to use this as a guide to the most descriptive naming convention. Most institutions are already following this convention, but some may need to update their listings to accommodate the creation of modality as a distinct field.

  • With the addition of modality as a field to designate online, in-person, or phone call meeting types, modality information should be removed from Service, Office, and Campus titles.
  • Each of these fields appear within the new scheduler as a filter to help students select the best slot.
  • Services and locations are linked together via the Office configuration. Admins will want to verify their association there.

Example titles:

Service Office Campus
  • Academic Pathway Advising
  • Access Services
  • Career Exploration or Development
  • Disability Services
  • Financial Aid Advising
  • Financial Aid award letter followup
  • Loan Questions
  • Transfer student guidance
  • Tutoring: Accounting
  • Tutoring: Multimedia design
  • Academic Success Center
  • Center for Leadership & Service
  • Disability Services Office
  • Financial Aid Office: Alumni Hall 3rd floor
  • International Student Programs
  • Tutoring Center
  • Writing Center: Main Library
  • Main Campus
  • Albany Campus
  • Medical Campus (Smithville)

Services listing may be found at: Admin>Meetings>Service Offerings

Offices listing may be found at: Admin>Meetings>Offices

Campus listing may be found at: Admin>Campuses and Buildings>Campuses

  • A note about Campus:
    • Avoid editing Campuses from the UI as these are linked to other datafeeds and changes will likely be overwritten
    • If the campus name you need doesn't exist, simply create a new one
