GRCC campus building schedules changing for summer
GRCC enhanced campus safety and security with a full electronic door security system this year. The door access system electronically controls the “unlock” and “lock” functions for all exterior doors.
With fewer classes and activities during the summer, the campus will be one a new schedule starting April 29. The change will largely affect weekend hours, and employee access with Raider Cards remains unchanged.
Faculty and staff wishing to schedule Saturday activities during June, July, and August need permission from the vice president of finance and administration.
Building schedules have been developed based on the following:
- Early morning and late evening safety and security for students and faculty is first priority.
- Classroom buildings open at 7 a.m., or 30 minutes prior to the first scheduled class.
- Weekend hours are scheduled as needed.
- Exceptions for special events and activities can be scheduled.
- Summer term schedules can be adjusted and are subject to change.

OR
- From within any G Suite App or Google.com, click the App Menu (waffle).
- Select Google+ (NOTE: If you haven’t already, make sure you’re signed into your GRCC account).
- You should see some posts show up right off the bat from the post-it board in your “discover” and “home” pages of Google+
- Click the green text that says GRCC Post-It Board.
- Click Join.
To create a post:
- Click the Pencil in the lower right, or start typing in the “what do you want to share?” box.
