It is your responsibility to manage your time appropriately.
POST CENTER POLICY AND PROCEDURES
Post Center Reservations: For all editing time, whether in or out of class, the editing facilities must be reserved, either for you as an individual or for the class as a whole. 1) Reservations are non-transferable. All unused reservations may be re-appropriated. 2) Students may only use labs designated for their specific class. Enrollment in the college, Cinema and Television Art department, or even post production classes DOES NOT grant carte blanche access to all labs. 3) Adv. Classes can make reservations over the phone or via email (postcenter@colum.edu). • Digital Cinema Mastering, Practicum, Adv. Color, AES, and Grad 4) Classes differ in the number of reservations students can make every week. Some classes also have standing reservations. Ask the Post Center for more information. 5) NO SAME DAY RESERVATIONS Unclaimed Reservations and Walk-ins: In addition to reserving editing, transfer, or mix time, students may sign up for unclaimed editing time. 1) Reservations are held for 30 minutes past their start time. After 30 minutes, any unclaimed reservations are given away (re-appropriated) to students signed up and waiting on a “first come, first serve” basis; this includes standing reservations. 2) Any unreserved editing slots can be claimed at the start of the time slot. 3) At the beginning of every Edit slot, the Post Center will build a new re-appropriation list for each lab if full. All students waiting to claim a space must sign the list. Reappropriation slots are on a first come, first served basis only. 4) Re-appropriation slots are for the current time slot only. All stations are cleared at the beginning of every time slot for the next round of reservations and re-appropriation. 5) The re-appropriation list will go into effect 30 minutes after the original start time of the editing slot. Students on a re-appropriation list must be present at that time. If their name is called and they are not present the next person on the list will be given the open slot. 6) Students may have as many re-appropriated slots a week as they like, but they may only sign up for and use one slot at a time, i.e. you can only edit on one station at a time.
