Average hours per week of scheduled occupancy of classroom and laboratory space in the nine institutions of higher education operated by the State of Oregon are analyzed and also compared with similar information concerning other states' institutions as available from the U. S. Office of Education. Classroom and laboratory utilization was based upon a maximum of 44 assignable hours per week. This weekly assignable hour total is exclusive of evening, Saturday, and Division of Continuing Education room assignments. The foregoing analysis plus the scheduled occupancy standards as established by the Oregon Board of Higher Education directly affect the development of the operating budget and the capital outlay program for the Oregon Board of Higher Education. Numerous charts, graphs, tables, and definitions of terms used are included. (RLP)
