SIS/Building Your Schedule of Classes - Global Notes
Note: Some SIS pages have been updated to a new user interface. Screenshots in KB documents will be updated over time to reflect the new look, but the functionality detailed below is unchanged.
What are Global Notes?
Global Notes are meant to display information relevant to all of a subject's course offerings. Global Notes will display in Course Search & Enroll under the heading Subject Notes for each course in your subject.
Global Notes often include information such as the URL of a department website, an email address students should use for enrollment permission requests, or additional contact information. This is NOT a place for information about specific classes; that should be entered in Maintain Schedule of Classes on the Notes tab. To provide Curricular Representatives a starting point that is as current as possible, Global Notes are rolled forward from the most recently published terms as follows: Fall notes are rolled from Spring, Spring notes are rolled from Fall, and Summer notes are rolled from Fall.
How to Update Global Notes

From Home, select: Curric & Enroll Rep WorkCenter, Global Notes Table. The Find page will display.

Step 2

If you are unsure of your Academic Group code, select the look up icon and then select Look Up. A list of all Academic Groups will appear, and you can select yours. After you have specified the Academic Group, Term, and Subject Area, select Search.
