It is best to reserve a room instead of simply adding the location to the “Where” field. When you reserve a room, the name of the room will appear in the “Where” field.
Note: Only faculty and staff are currently able to reserve rooms through Google Calendar. None of the rooms in Google Calendar's reserve room feature are available to students. If a student wishes to reserve a room, he or she can do so through the myCU portal option "Reserve a Room."
In Google Calendar, you are only able to reserve rooms that your office controls.
