Even though the official &quot;<U>Class Schedule &amp; Guide</U>&quot; is and should be used as the only 'official' list for course information, especially reference numbers, it has been realized that, once printed, the Class Schedule is rapidly outdated by corrections and modifications. Students will be able to browse the <A HREF="http://www.umkc.edu/registrar/sch.html">On-Line Class Schedules</A> which, we have been told, will be kept up-to-date on a (bi-)weekly basis.
