Body
Astra is Dominican's online facilities request application. All faculty and staff have the ability to place a facilities request through Astra. Faculty and Staff may request a room for classes, meetings, video conferencing and events. Students are allowed to request facilities for events through a club or organization. Students also can request study spaces and view classrooms that are not being used. When a computer classroom is not in use, it is allowed to be used as a study space by students. Facilities requested through Astra, must be placed no later than 24 hours before the event. When requesting a facility for multiple recurring dates Astra will not process the request. The order must be placed manually by Scheduling and Event Services.
