Registrar's office goes green: no more class schedules after Spring 2010 semester

UAA's Office of the Registrar is pleased to announce the passing of an era -- when registering for classes meant waiting in long lines, tearing pages out of schedule books, completing paper forms, and location specific enrollment functions. In support of UAA's commitment to sustainability, paper versions of the fall and spring class schedules will no longer be printed after the spring 2010 semester. For those who prefer the traditional view, a PDF version will continue being produced and available on the Publications and Scheduling Web site.

Since 2005, UAA's division of Enrollment Management spent nearly one-quarter million dollars printing more than 300,000 copies of class schedule books. Staff efforts and resources will be redirected to maintaining and improving the course search processes within UAOnline. The flexibility of UAOnline for searches, providing registration overrides and approvals, and transacting business from convenient locations continues the Registrar's commitment to being student-centered.

By not printing class schedule books, UAA will reduce its consumption of printed-paper by 3,000,000 sheets a year and thereby save 38 trees. Visit here for more information about the impact of your paper consumption.
