Hi again
I have a list of university rooms here. I know "ex cathedra" could remain unchanged, but surely that's not what they're called in English...
TIA
Derek

Comment: "Thanks as usual for your invaluable input.
I have come to the conclusion that the meaning is just that the classroom is a standard type of layout with the tutor lecturning students from a desk at the front, presumably rather than the theatre type arrangement in a seminar space. Since "ex cathedra" as Don explains has such a specific meaning when the Latin appears in English, I prefer to avoid it and go with Paola's / Sarah's lecture rooms / classrooms approach.
Respect

Extension classrooms
???? I'm not sure what is meant by "ex cathedra" but the two possibilities I can think of are
Extension Programs (offered to the community)
Continuing Education Programs (I teach in the NYU COntinuing Ed Program) - often the courses are career-oriented or self-improvement-oriented

ex cathedra lecture halls
an "aula" in a university is a lecture hall.
ex cathedra (latin) refers to lectures/lessons given by the professor who has the chair in the university, in other words, with the authority of his position. The Pope speaks ex cathedra of church dogma.
I would not translate it.
see the web site below which gives the meaning as from the chair, i.e. with authority.

Caro Derek,
Secondo me le due risposte suggerite vanno bene.
Inoltre, nel Regno Unito, "ex cathdera" è usato abbastanza di frequente ed il secondo suggerimento è accettabilissimo.
Se poi vai su:
www.goggle.co.uk
e cerchi:
ex cathdedra + lecture,
vedrai che troverai numerosi riscontri
