Student Success: Our CollaborationRetention and Graduation increasingly begins with Admissions• Base enrollment planning on pre-college attributes
(including engagement behaviors and expectations) . . . Prepare the campus prior to the students’ arrival
• Go beyond “how many?” to “what do they need?”• Prepare for students having started their degree
while in high school or at another college, how does this shift the types of courses we offer?
• For example, with the common core, there is more demand for specific courses, but students may have already taken these courses. How can we predict the numbers of students who will need Comm-R110 and ENG-W131?

Student Success: Our Collaboration
Course Inventory Planning
– New Approach to Classroom Utilization
– Based on result of modeling, recommendations for time/day/space for additional classes to Deans
– PROACTIVE ASSISTANCE!!!
I N D I A N A U N I V E R S I T Y – P U R D U E U N I V E R S IT Y I N D I A N A P O L I S

Approach to Classroom UtilizationCurrently: Classroom Space Divided
Departmentally-Controlled Space Assigned by Academic Unit
General Inventory Space Assigned by Registrar
“What if the Registrar Controlled the World?”
I N D I A N A U N I V E R S I T Y – P U R D U E U N I V E R S IT Y I N D I A N A P O L I S
12
NEW Approach to Classroom Utilization
Guiding Principle Academic Units should experience “no harm” if scheduling all classroom space became responsibility of Registrar
– Specialty classes untouched– Current department-scheduled classes
into home building based on 67% fill– “Priority” assignment into home building
based on 67% fill
I N D I A N A U N I V E R S I T Y – P U R D U E U N I V E R S IT Y I N D I A N A P O L I S
13
NEW Approach to Classroom Utilization
Premise If Registrar controlled all classrooms, guiding principles upheld along with further classroom utilization efficiencies
Pilot with Engineering and Technology
I N D I A N A U N I V E R S I T Y – P U R D U E U N I V E R S IT Y I N D I A N A P O L I S
14
NEW Approach to Classroom Utilization
Engineering and Technology Test Pilot• Specialty classes remained in their
assigned rooms (Eng labs, etc.)• 62 more E&T classes scheduled
into ET building• All with at least 67% fill ratio• Based on addition of 9 DC
classrooms to Registrar inventory
I N D I A N A U N I V E R S I T Y – P U R D U E U N I V E R S IT Y I N D I A N A P O L I S
15
NEW Approach to Classroom Utilization
Visit to E&T DC RoomsThree: specialized to Interior Design & had to remain open based on accreditation visit
Two: specialized lab equipment; thermodynamics lab and materials lab
Four: available to be turned over to Registrar
I N D I A N A U N I V E R S I T Y – P U R D U E U N I V E R S IT Y I N D I A N A P O L I S
16
NEW Approach to Classroom Utilization
• Same simulation for real for Spring 2015 Classes using the FOUR available new rooms in E&T
• Plan to roll out to more units• Not magic bullet ….not a significant
number of DC rooms in the inventory• But still better utilization of space and
happier Deans, Chairs, Faculty…students!

Message to Admissions Officers:
Graduation and Retention Begins with Recruitment and Admissions
We must become a full-participant in understanding the consequences of the number and types of students who will be enrolling.
After all, successful students on campus will benefit our future recruitment.
