At the moment the only people who can see what courses are being taught in the coming year are Academic Admins, the Registrar, Faculty (only their own courses), and students (only if online enrolment is activated, and then only one term at a time). Maybe there are a few other user roles. But to many users, this information is hidden. Yet most members of our seminary community need to know what courses are being taught. The business manager needs this information for budgetary purposes, the library staff need to know what books to put on reserve, and staff members need to know when the profs/students are in class. So could I suggest that the course offerings per term be made available to all users (after all, it's public information)? If anyone is concerned about privacy, there could be a setting to turn it off.

Donna Harrington In a small college this is a real problem for office staff who wear many hats.
Staff really need to be able to email by course list to support the faculty.

Helen Tagawa Our advisors have expressed their frustrations in that they can only see the courses that they teach. As our course offerings are set up months in advance, it would be useful for advising purposes for advisors to be able to view all courses by semester, past, present, and especially future.
