  4. Set the Effective Date to the appropriate date.

    NOTE: An incorrect date could mean that the change will not be effective when it is needed. Therefore, the Effective Date must abide by the following convention.
    • If the change is to take effect for a Spring term, the value should be Jan 1 for the given year (01/01/??).
    • If the change is to take effect for a Summer term, the value should be May 1 for the given year (05/01/??).
    • If the change is to take effect for a Fall term, the value should be Aug 1 for the given year (08/01/??).
    • If the desired effective date is already present, then date the new row one day later, such as (01/02/??).

  5. (Optional) Set Instructor Type and/or Instructor Available values, if needed.
    • Instructor Type: select appropriate value
    • Note: If "Advisor Only" is selected then person is not available as instructor.
    • Use "Undefined" if one of the other values is not appropriate.
    • Instructor Available: select "Available".
    • Note: If "Unavailable" or "Sabbatical" is selected then the person is not available as instructor.
