Scheduling was a monumental chore for the Glen. I know personally cause Carol, Tom & I spent about 2 hours on it trying all sorts of different configurations.
Classrooms, run groups, work assignments, instructor loads, etc. all factor into the schedule.
We have a lot less flexibility at the Glen than we have at any other track. The run sessions must start at 8:30, the day must end at 4:30, lunch must be from 12:00 - 1:00, and the classroom sessions had to be scheduled between 9:00 - 2:00. We took as many liberties as we thought we could.
FWIW - if you look at previous schedules, Red - Black - Blue - White - Green is the preferred sequence as it gives instructors as much flexibility as we can. And quite honestly, we prioritize instructor convenience over student convenience.
cya,
Jack
