Went to teach this morning and found another class in our room. After checking that it was indeed our room, we decided to allow the other class to use it this once seeing as they had a PowerPoint set up and a visiting speaker and stuff. After scrabbling around, the timetabling person managed to get permission for us to use the executive boardroom (provided we were 'very quiet'). The students really enjoyed getting past the combination-locked door next to the Vice-Chancellor's office and checking out the portraits of honorary graduands (including at least one graduate from our programme) on the way to the room. Quite odd, though, to have a seminar in the kind of room you expect to see high-powered executives making their presentations in and stuff.
