Uncertain, flagged, or weakly supported (not already listed above)

CDM-003 — Jarvis Student Center for Innovation & Collaboration (CDM-003)

  • Level: yellow (Negotiated Access)
  • Rationale: Jarvis Student Center page describes the space but does not publish open walk-in hours or equipment booking rules; access is typically arranged through CDM programs and staff.

  • Review flags: missing_contact_email
  • Suggested next step: Confirm current contact, training/certification requirements, and whether walk-in or appointment access applies; update access_url if a dedicated policy page exists.

CDM-004 — CyberLabs (CDM-004)

  • Level: yellow (Negotiated Access)

  • Suggested next step: Confirm current contact, training/certification requirements, and whether walk-in or appointment access applies; update access_url if a dedicated policy page exists.

CDM-011 — VIDA / MedIX / IMP Labs (CDM-011)

  • Level: yellow (Negotiated Access)

CDM-015 — Computing Academic Programs (Robotics, CSE, Physical Computing) (CDM-015)

  • Level: yellow (Negotiated Access)
  • Rationale: Curriculum resource: robotics/CSE/physical-computing equipment access is through course enrollment and linked CDM labs, not a standalone open facility policy on the program pages alone.
  • Access URL: https://catalog.depaul.edu/programs/robotics-bs/
  • Review flags: missing_contact_email
  • Suggested next step: Confirm current contact, training/certification requirements, and whether walk-in or appointment access applies; update access_url if a dedicated policy page exists.

CDM-016 — DePaul Cinespace Studios (CDM-016)

  • Level: yellow (Negotiated Access)

CDM-020 — SCA Post-Production & Animation Labs (CDM-020)

  • Level: yellow (Negotiated Access)
  • Rationale: Post-production and animation lab pages describe SCA facilities; access is tied to cinematic-arts coursework and production authorization rather than published open hours.
  • Access URL: https://www.cdm.depaul.edu/school-of-cinematic-arts/production-resources/post-production-and-animation
  • Review flags: missing_contact_email
  • Suggested next step: Confirm current contact, training/certification requirements, and whether walk-in or appointment access applies; update access_url if a dedicated policy page exists.

CDM-021 — CDM Department Server Infrastructure (CDM-021)

  • Level: red (Restricted Access)
  • Rationale: Department server infrastructure is described in grant/facilities narratives without a public self-service access policy; typical use is restricted to SoC/IT-provisioned research and teaching accounts.
  • Access URL: https://www.cdm.depaul.edu/academics/computing-and-digital-media/school-of-computing
  • Review flags: missing_contact_email

  • Contact email: CSHFrontDesk@depaul.edu
  • Suggested next step: Confirm current contact, training/certification requirements, and whether walk-in or appointment access applies; update access_url if a dedicated policy page exists.

CSH-003 — Environmental Science & Chemistry Building (McGowan) (CSH-003)

  • Level: yellow (Negotiated Access)
  • Rationale: McGowan building/facilities pages describe shared CSH infrastructure; room-level access and specialized spaces are managed through departments without a single open-access policy on the building page.
  • Access URL: https://csh.depaul.edu/academics/departments-schools/chemistry/facilities
  • Contact email: CSHFrontDesk@depaul.edu
