It seems that the earlier slowdowns experienced are now gone, and our course roster has been updated. As such, emails have been sent out to notify users of changes to their schedules. If you are unsure of whether your schedule has changed, please log into BUSIPlus and verify your schedule and room numbers. Good luck to everyone this semester!
Please make sure you verify your schedules manually against BU Brain. There is an issue where our updates against Banner seem to have been slowed down significantly. As a result, we are unable to update the roster of classes temporarily, and cannot guarantee that your schedules do not contain obsolete information.
We will not email schedule updates until the roster is up-to-date. This is to ensure that we do not send incorrect information to our users. We will notify you when the issue has been resolved, and you will receive an email with updates to your schedule. We apologize for this inconvenience, but hope to have the issue rectified shortly.
The Spring 2010 course roster is now up! Please make sure to notify us by either using the feedback form or sending an email if you find any errors!
Also, we’ve noticed that the course descriptions are broken. We are looking into the best way to bring those back, as BU Brain seems to lack consistency these days. We’re also looking into what to do to restore the grading option (letter vs. pass/fail) information into BUSIPlus. We’ll keep you updated once we figure out what to do for both of these issues.
Just a quick note that we are currently working on adding in the Spring 2010 schedules to BUSIPlus. There have been a couple of small issues that need to be fixed (thanks, BU Brain…), but we should have it up and running by Monday. Once we do, we’ll post an update on the blog, so make sure to check back here!
The two bugs in our database updater have finally been fixed. You should find that all Fall 2009 courses are appearing on BUSIPlus with updated enrollments. Please email us if this isn’t the case. Summer ’09 courses are currently being updated and should be fixed shortly.
Despite our hopes of doing this before the first day of classes, these bugs kept us from emailing users with changes to their schedules. Now that the errors are gone, we have started sending these immediately. You should receive any updates within a few hours. Hopefully they’ll be of some use to you guys. That said, this is a good time to remind users that BUSIPlus cannot be relied on for real-time updates. It may take us a day or two to detect a schedule change. As a precaution, always verify your schedule against Banner to make sure you don’t miss a class!
