Assignment #7

Roles and Privileges

Create two roles: REGISTRAR and INSTRUCTOR. Then create the following views and assign select rights on
each set of views to the roles they are listed under:
1. REGISTRAR
CURRENT_REGS: All students that have registered in the current day
SEATS_AVAIL: The remaining seats available in all sections (seats = capacity enrollment)
WEEK_REGS: All students that have registered in the last seven days
2. INSTRUCTOR
ROSTER: all students in classes taught. Assume that instructors have Oracle accounts that they
run the view from and that their login ids match their last names.
ASSIGNMENTS: all sections taught by the instructor
Finally, grant the registrar role to Mitch (murov_m) instructor role to Mitch (murov_m). This is my user id
which exists in the database in the labs. If you are working at home, you will have to create these users to
make sure your scripts work.
