To schedule a meeting in the Houchens 160A Conference/Training Room, you should first view the calendar for Houchens160A (all one word) on GroupWise.  Everyone should have proxy access to this.  Then, send an appointment to Houchens160A through GroupWise for the preferred date and time of your meeting or training session.  Please indicate a subject for your meeting, so that it is clear on the master calendar for 160A.  Immediately, you will receive an automated response either accepting or declining your meeting request.

Using the Projector and Screen: log on to the computer, sign on with user name confroom, leave the password blank but make sure the work station is checked. If you have any problems, your Tier One staff can help you.

Turn the projector on using the “Power” button on the remote control.  Lower the screen by pressing the “Down” button once (the control box is on the wall to the left of the screen).  When you are finished with the room, simply press the “Up” button once and turn off the projector.

A laser pointer is available for use in the conference room only.

There is a speaker phone housed permanently in Houchens 160A. If you are setting up a conference call, the number for this phone is 852-3229.

There is a small red “Room In Use” sign in a plate on the conference room door nearest the corridor to the Office of Admissions. If the room is vacant, the blank side of the sign should be visible. If the room is occupied, the red side of the sign should be visible. The individual reserving the room is responsible for this.

Please be careful with the chairs and tables, as the main contact areas are wood. They will damage easily. Please make sure that all chairs are completely lowered before they are pushed against the tables upon leaving the room. As the scheduler of a meeting or training session, you assume responsibility for this. We are very proud of this room and want to keep it looking nice. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
