Term Naming Systems
The three parts of the eight character terms are:
Year – all four digits
Sequential letter – A thru Z.
Campus Abbreviation – 3 characters. i.e. MSU or HSC.
In determining how to name your textbook terms, the three methods you can choose are:
Calendar year
Academic year
Fiscal year
It is important to define your term sequence letters for the year because terms for each campus must be opened and closed in sequential/alphabetical order.
