Stupid question, but how do we read on our timetable what building our classes are in?

Here are all the abbreviations of the buildings. You can use the map on their website also to find out where exactly the building is located.

It says so, abbreviated, right under the subject name, along with the room no.. You have to learn what each abbreviation stands for, and I don't know the link for it right now. I still haven't learnt what they mean, either. Better get to it...

the building is usually under the course code on your timetable. it is usually a few letters followed by a number. For example: BSB 147

Your CA can also help you find buildings if you need full directions from your location., if you are in residence.
