2. Select your Instance (term).

3. Select your Scheduling Unit (department).

4. From your department’s list of classes, double-click the section you wish to add a second meeting pattern to (or begin creating a new section by clicking the green plus sign to the right of the course number).

5. In the section’s “Create Section” or “Edit Section” window, click the meeting pattern link under Schedule.

6. The Scheduling window will pop up.

   1. Drop down the Patterns menu.

   2. Enter your first meeting pattern in the blank textbox under “User Defined,” or select one from the available list above that (if any are listed and are appropriate).
      Sample format: MWF 8:00am-8:50am
      

      

   3. Click the Add button, and the meeting pattern will appear in a solid green block on the scheduling grid.
      
      (Note: (Any other already-scheduled sections of that course number will be in lighter-colored blocks for reference. Their section numbers along the top can be clicked to toggle their displays on and off.)

9. A Meeting Details window will pop up.

   1. From this window, you can change the Schedule Type and the Room, if they differ from the values in the Create/Edit Section window. (You can also request a General Pool Room for this meeting pattern.)

   2. From this window, you should not change the Dates (they should be the same dates as the Part of Term selected in the Create/Edit Section window).

   3. The Pattern will be grayed out; you will update the Meeting Pattern elsewhere, in the next step.

   4. Click the Accept button. (The Meeting Details window will disappear.)

    1. Again, drop down the Patterns menu.

    2. Enter your second meeting pattern

    3. Click the Add button. Your second meeting pattern will appear on the grid.

13. When all meeting patterns are entered, click the Accept button. This will close the Scheduling window.
    

    

    
    

14. Your multiple meeting patterns should now display in the Create/Edit Section window. Click the Save Section button. This will close the Create/Edit Section window.
