Valid Terms for Visual Scheduler

Set the Valid Terms for each course. The Visual Scheduler requires this information for each course as the term determines the size of the section tile and the term value determines where a section can be placed. For example, a course that occurs in Semester 1 only will display in the top half of a section cell, and can only be placed in the top half.
