function calendar_get_available_faculty_schedule

6.x calendar.module calendar_get_available_faculty_schedule($faculty_id, $event_type_cid, $month, $year)

Returns back an array of time slots available for this faculty member and event_type

We will convert all times to local timezone as well.

2 calls to calendar_get_available_faculty_schedule()

This is the page which lets students schedule an appointment with the faculty member supplied in the user_id.
