BUSIPlus Bloggy Blog

There’s been a bug brought to our attention.  At this time, CS 140 section A0 and CS 185A are currently not showing up on BUSIPlus.  We are working to rectify this as soon as possible.  Apologies for the inconvenience.

Well, it looks like Banner’s course descriptions are back up, so they now show up on BUSIPlus.  Hope that helps with setting up schedules.  Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

It seems that course descriptions are not loading on BUSIPlus.  This appears to be an issue with BU Brain, as they cannot be viewed on there either.  We are looking to resolve this as soon as possible.  Sorry for any inconvenience in the meantime.

It’s been a quiet few months for BUSIPlus.  But don’t worry – we’re still working on it.  Just very slowly…  Anyhow, you can now view Summer and Fall 2009 schedules on BUSIPlus!  Visit BUSIPlus to search classes and build your new schedule today!  Please let us know if you find any problems with the new schedules.

Don’t forget: if you like BUSIPlus, please add yourself as a fan on Facebook and let your friends know!  Visit the BUSIPlus Facebook page.

On an unrelated note, though there’s been a lot of controversy, isn’t it still incredible that Binghamton finally made it to the Big Dance?  Go Bearcats!

For anyone looking for them, Winter 2009 schedules are now available, along with an updated version of the Spring 2009 schedules.  Now that a couple of quirks with the updater have been handled, we should be able to run it more often.

We’ve added some minor enhancements to the BUSIPlus schedule builder.  First off is the new course descriptions we’re linking to, which now include actual summaries.  Now, we are also linking each CRN to its own description, as the BU system shows different descriptions for each section.  Also in the section view, if you hover over the room number, a tooltip will help you decode the abbreviation.  There are a few minor tweaks that have been made to the way things are displayed, most notably that the grid is now turned on by default for schedules.

Please keep providing us with suggestions, and we will continue to make incremental updates as quickly as we can.
