[Prep Lab Students] October Reminders & Updates

[Weaver, Tyler]

Hi Everyone,

A few reminders and updates to share:

Consumables
We’re still noticing that the quantities of consumables being set out don’t always match what’s listed on the checklist, especially with test tubes and Pasteur pipets. Please condense boxes whenever possible to keep the correct quantity available. If you can’t condense, do not put out a new box yet.

Complete Tasks on Time
If you are assigned an unlocking/locking or lab readiness check, please be upstairs and beginning your task by the listed start time. Unlock the labs first, then move on to checking items off your list. Delays in unlocking the labs cause delays for students starting their work.

Vacuuming
Starting tomorrow, a new task will be added to the Daily Sheets: vacuuming labs using the red backpack vacuum. We’ve noticed a buildup of dust bunnies, and this should help. When assigned, put a fresh battery in the vacuum, go to the assigned lab(s), and run the vacuum around the bases of cabinets, desks, and other areas where dust tends to collect.

Prep Lab Closed on 10/16 and 10/17
The prep lab will be closed on October 16th and 17th for fall break.


Best,

Tyler
