Facility utilization

When rooms are actually in use. A high daily average can still hide a crush at mid-day and empty early mornings, late afternoons, and Fridays — this shows the real peak.

Rooms in use at each hour (Kennesaw State, Spring 2025) — peak 325 of 441 rooms. Darker = busier.

Each cell counts distinct rooms with a class meeting during that clock hour (cross-listed classes counted once). Rooms may host back-to-back classes, so a busy hour reflects the schedule’s peak demand — the true capacity constraint, versus the flat daily average.
