Classes yanked out of classrooms, stuck in temporaries
by
Roy Bauer
Last night, I reported that, owing (evidently) to the poor condition of the temp building housing the Irvine Valley College Bookstore, the latter will be moved into building B100—where, of course, there are classrooms presently in use (by writing instructors, among others).
A few minutes ago, I learned that instructors who use rooms B101 and B102 have been informed, via email, that, “effective Monday, August 27, your classes in B 101 and B 102 will not meet in these rooms. All Classes in B 101 will meet in CEC 5. All Classes in B 102 will meet in CEC 6.”
CEC5 and 6 are inferior temporary buildings located just southwest of the Bookstore.
The move is permanent: “These classes will meet in these rooms for the remainder of the semester.”
CORRECTION: an earlier version of this post suggested that the decision to move these classes occurred without due consideration to instructors involved. I have been assured (by people directly involved) that the decision occurred because of an emergency and that an effort was made to take this action with the cooperation and assistance of the relevant dean and chairs. I will make an effort to gain clarity about the emergency.
See UPDATE of subsequent post.

Why not put the bookstore in the temporaries and leave the clsses alone? Very suspicious.
