The Four Policies of the Hasler Lab 101 Lab
- Leave the lab cleaner and neater than it was when you arrived. This includes not just your own area – do your part to help keep it clean! Put away supplies when not in use. Replace common supplies if necessary (Extra paper towels are down in Aaron Nolan‘s office in the boat slip area.)
- Label all your equipment, space, and experiments in progress. Please do not use the 101 lab as a storage space! Unlabeled equipment will be thrown out or become common use. Labeling is quick and hassle-free, just use a piece of colored lab tape
There is no excuse not to label!
- Follow safety guidelines. Use all personal protective equipment necessary for your task. Be cognizant that other people may be at risk due to your activity, and take the appropriate precautions. If you think we need more safety gear or protocols, say something!
- If you do not know what to do, ask!
