6.0 SCHEDULING OF FACILITIES

The Facilities and Grounds Use Policy is developed on the principle that day-to-day administration of scheduling activities will be accomplished as efficiently as possible. The designated Building Scheduler will have the authority and responsibility to schedule available facilities in accordance with the priorities and conditions set forth in this document. Requests for an exemption from these priorities and conditions need to be directed to the Vice Chancellor of Administrative Affairs.The Vice Chancellor will consult with the Facility Use Advisory Committee and others, as appropriate, in making the final decision.Continuing Education is the designated unit to coordinate multiple facility use by off-campus groups or organizations. Activities should be scheduled during designated operating hours whenever possible. For reservations beyond established building hours, all General Access space converts to Controlled Access space.The Building Supervisor and Building Scheduler have the responsibility to determine if the facility may be reserved, to schedule after-hours events using the University centralized room reservation system, and to arrange for customer access to the reserved space.

For an instructional space to be designated as "Controlled Access" by University Administration, with space approved and reserved through a Building Supervisor or designee, the facility must meet as least one of the following criteria:

1. Health and safety code requirements: where training/supervision required for use due to specialized or hazardous equipment.
2. Specific design/function: examples include, pool, gymnasium, studios (art, music, radio, television), theatres, performance halls, labs (computer, science), WilliamsCenter, DLK Kachel Fieldhouse, Young Auditorium.
3. Extraordinary security needs: space determined through consultation with University Police and/or Risk Management.

All other instructional space not designated as "Controlled Access".

All non-instructional space is designated as "Controlled Access", with space approved and reserved through a Building Supervisor or designee. Facility use must meet appropriate use guidelines set forth in Section 4.0.

If a change in designation of a particular space is desired, contact should be made with the Campus Planner.The Campus Planner will evaluate space, based on the established criteria, to determine its appropriate designation as either Controlled or General Access space.

All instructional space (general and controlled access) is initially assigned during the process of developing the term schedule of classes.This process is coordinated by the Registrar's Office. Academic departments that wish to change a class¹ instructional space assignment must make a formal email request to the Registrar¹s Office room scheduler prior to days/dates listed in 6.2.2. when instructional space becomes available for non-instructional use.

Instructional space is available for non-instructional use (conferences, meetings, presentations, etc.) and may be reserved by University departments/units and recognized student organizations beginning the sixth business day (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) after the end of the priority registration period for the respective term.
The Registrar¹s Office and the University Reservation Office must mutually agree upon exceptions to this schedule. The scheduling of instructional space for non-instructional use is coordinated by the University Reservation Office and space is assigned based on the following criteria:

1. Same location each time
2. Space appropriate for size of group and type of meeting
3. Space set up needs
4. Space AV/Tech equipment needs

If there is a request to reserve instructional space that has already been assigned to another party (e.g, instructor, department, group, organization), and the requestor is not able to identify an available alternate location or is reluctant to accept an alternate location, the requestor will contact the party that has the instructional space reserved to attempt to negotiate a mutually acceptable agreement for use of the facility.If a mutual agreement is reached, the party that has the space reserved will contact the Registrar's OfficeInstructional Space Scheduler and authorize a change so that the University's student information and University centralized room reservation systems can be updated.If a mutual agreement cannot be reached, the requestor should follow the appeal guidelines outlined in Section 6.2.4.

The Provost or his/her designee will be the final authority for making instructional space assignment decisions.A written appeal must be filed with the Provost (or designee) and must include:

1. Contact information (name, office location, phone, email) for appellant and the individual/department/office that has the space reserved.
2. A detailed description of the instructional space need.
3. The steps taken to identify available locations, and the person(s)/office(s) contacted in each step.
4. The reasons why available alternate locations are unacceptable.
5. The person(s) with whom negotiations were made for reassignment of the facility, and the reasons why a mutual agreement could not be reached.

The Provost or designee will review the written appeal and will make a final decision within five working days of receipt of the appeal.The final decision will be communicated in writing to the appellant (email is considered an acceptable written form for communicating the decision).

Priority scheduling of non-instructional controlled access space is coordinated by the University Reservation Office in April of each year; and covers requests for events occurring the next fall term through the end of the next summer.Scheduling is completed based on the following criteria:

1. Attendance appropriate to the facility
2. Preference to recognized student organizations in UniversityCenter facilities
3. Catered events given priority in dining areas
4. Events having excessive technical needs
5. Historical experience with the groups as to changes made on requests, cancellations, no shows, condition of facility after event, and policy.

After priority scheduling is completed and confirmed to scheduled event sponsors, reservations for controlled access space are made on a continuous basis, based on the above criteria and space availability.

If there is a request to reserve Non-Instructional Controlled Access Space that has already been assigned to another party (e.g, instructor, department, group, organization), and the requestor is not able to identify an available alternate location or is reluctant to accept an alternate location, the requestor will contact the party that has the instructional space reserved to attempt to negotiate a mutually acceptable agreement for use of the facility.If a mutual agreement is reached, the party that has the space reserved will contact the University Reservation Office Scheduler and authorize a change so that the University's student information and University centralized room reservation systems can be updated.If a mutual agreement cannot be reached, the requestor should follow the appeal guidelines outlined in Section 6.3.2.

The Division Head(s) or his/her designee(s) will be the final authority for making non-instructional space assignment decisions. A written appeal must be filed with the Division Head(s) (or designee(s)) and must include:

1. Contact information (name, office location, phone, email) for appellant and the individual/department/office that has the space reserved.
2. A detailed description of the instructional space need.
3. The steps taken to identify available locations, and the person(s)/office(s) contacted in each step.
4. The reasons why available alternate locations are unacceptable.
5. The person(s) with whom negotiations were made for reassignment of the facility, and the reasons why a mutual agreement could not be reached.

The Division Head(s) or designee will review the written appeal and will make a final decision within five working days of receipt of the appeal.The final decision will be communicated in writing to the appellant (email is considered an acceptable written form for communicating the decision).

APPENDIX D
Wisconsin Administrative Code Chapter UWS 8.025

1. Outside activities

   Members of the unclassified staff are free to engage in outside activities, whether or not such activities are remunerative or related to staff members' fields of academic interest or specialization.However, no member of the unclassified staff may engage in an outside activity if it conflicts with his or her public responsibilities to the university of Wisconsin system or the institution at which the unclassified staff member is employed.

2. Reportable outside activities
(a) The following outside activities must be reported to a staff member's dean, director or other appropriate administrator.

1. Associations with organizations, as defined in s.UWS 8.02 (3) and (12), related to staff members' fields of academic interest or specialization;
2. Private remunerative relationships between staff members and non-governmental sponsors of university research for which the staff member is a principal investigator; and
3. Remunerative outside activities in a staff member's field of academic interest or specialization, including but not limited to consulting, and whether the staff member is a principal investigator; and

(b) Each unclassified staff member engaging in outside activities reportable under this section shall annually, on or before April 30, file a report of outside activities with his or her dean, director or other appropriate administrator.


(c) If, during the year, significant changes in a staff member's reportable outside activities occur, the staff member shall immediately inform, in writing, his or her dean, director or other appropriate administrator.This information shall be placed on file with the staff member's annual statement of outside interests.


3. Institutional policies

The unclassified staff members of each institution, with the approval of the chancellor, shall develop policies and procedures which shall, at a minimum, provide:

(a) Standards concerning the use of university facilities and personnel in connection with outside activities;

(b) Standards concerning absence from regular duties for the purpose of engaging in outside activities;

(c) Guidelines identifying types or categories of outside activities which may result in a material conflict of interest; and

(d) For such reports of anticipated outside activities as are necessary to insure compliance with s.UWS 8.04.

4. Reports public

Information required to be reported under this section shall, unless otherwise privileged by law, be a matter of public record.
Note:This section addresses outside activities.Several explanatory points provide relevant background:

1. The section addresses matters heretofore handled under UWS 7 and 14, which are accordingly repealed.This change in the scope of UWS 8 was made in response to legislative suggestion.
2. The rule recognizes the right of unclassified staff members to engage in outside activities, whether or not the activities are remunerative or related to staff members' fields of academic interest.However, in order to assure that such activities do not conflict with staff members' responsibilities to the university of Wisconsin System, or the institution at which the staff member serves, the rule provides that certain types of activities must be reported to staff members' deans, directors or other appropriate administrators.These reportable outside activities include associations with organizations related to staffmembers' fields of academic interest or specialization, certain private remunerative relationships between staff members and non-governmental research sponsors, and remunerative outside activities in staff members' field of academic interest or specialization and whether the staff member earns $5,000 or more in a year from a single source.The language retains the requirements currently in UWS 7 and 14 that institutions develop policies to regulate the use of university facilities in connection with outside activities, and adds a similar requirement pertaining to use of personnel.It provides a more explicit requirement for institutional development of standards on absence from university duties, and for reports on outside activities which staff members anticipate they will perform during the academic year.
3. Guidelines and suggestions will be provided to institutions for implementation of the Regent rule.These guidelines would include examples of standards concerning use of university facilities and absence from university duties that might be adopted under UWS 8.025 (3) (a) and (b); categories or types of activities which might present a material conflict of interest under UWS 8.025 (3) (c); reporting procedures under UWS 8.025 (4); and other relevant information.
4. The rule incorporates and codifies the result of litigation between the Madison Capital Times and the UW-Madison.That case, decided in DaneCounty Circuit Court in the spring of 1983, held that UW-Madison reports of outside activities required under UWS 7 and 14 were records open to public inspection.This section continues the existence of the reporting requirements (UWS 8.025 (2)) and declares the public nature of the reports (UWS 8.025 (4)), except in those instances where other legal principles establish a privilege for the information contained therein.
5. UWS 8.025 (1) indicates that the Regents' purpose is not to dictate the financial or topical terms of outside activity but to ensure that it does not present conflicts of interest or time with university duties.(See also Note to UWS 8.01 (3)).
6. Forms required under this section for the reporting of outside activities may be obtained from the Office of the Secretary to the Board of Regents, Room 1860 Van Hise Hall, 1220 Linden Drive, Madison, Wisconsin 53706, at no charge.

History: Cr. Register, January, 1986, No. 361, eff. 2-1-86.
