BE ADVISED- They will be shutting down the air handler that supplies air to the labs on the addition side of the building tomorrow, Tuesday 14th, starting at 6 am and lasting for approximately 2 - 3 hours. This will affect all labs on Ground, 1st, and 2nd floors. The 3rd floor labs will NOT be affected by this shut down. All fume hoods will still be in operation but may go into alarm on the affected floors and doors may be hard to open due to the air imbalance created. If you have any questions please contact me.

Safety awareness training session - Thursday
by Nagy, Gabriela 06 Nov '17

06 Nov '17

Hello Everyone, The next safety awareness training sessions is scheduled for this Thursday, November 9, 2017 from 3:00-4:00 pm in FRNY 1142. All new employees and researchers need to have initial safety training. If you have new people joining your groups for research, they will need safety training before they start working (e.g. visitors, exchange students, post-docs, etc.). Please ask them to attend this session. Most of our undergraduate students already have the initial training, and would need to take the online refresher. Thank you, Gabriela __________________ Gabriela Nagy, PhD Industrial Education Director Davidson School of Chemical Engineering Room FRNY G041D Purdue University Tel: (765)-496-1710 E-mail: nagyg(a)purdue.edu<mailto:nagyg@purdue.edu>
