So what happens when departments move around, expand, or contact?
Rooms are taken over by other departments... does this mean they change 
name?
I presume "8.02 in Mathematics" becomes "8.02 in ParaPsycology" (or 
whatever)
Is there precedence where the "8.02" part has changed?

I read into this statement that there is a consistent numbering system 
across the whole campus, where the "level" is the same across all 
buildings.... meaning that a 4-story building at the bottom of the slope 
can be floors 1,2,3,4 whilst a similar 4-story building at the top of 
the hill has floors 8,9,10,11
(THAT would be a "Planner's" solution :chuckle: )
