Great Big Move Update
by Mosier, Nathan S 08 Dec '20

08 Dec '20

Hello LORRE! Here's an update for tomorrow! The movers didn't quite finish moving Lilly Hall today. They estimate that they will start moving LORRE from Potter late morning or more likely tomorrow early afternoon. Please make sure that your phone is unplugged and labeled and your computer is disconnected (wrap the cords around the monitor(s)) before they arrive. It is best to stay out of their way (don't be even on the same floor as they are) when they're working. It's a fairly large group and they are working hard to get everything moved as quickly as possible. While the updated schedule shows all of LORRE being moved tomorrow, I think it is unlikely that they will finish before tomorrow evening - especially since they are about a ½ day behind now. I'll let everyone know the status tomorrow late afternoon. Thanks again to everyone for getting ready. The Great Big Move is happening! Sincerely, Nate Nathan Mosier he / him / his Professor and Head | Agricultural & Biological Engineering Indiana Soybean Alliance Chair in Soybean Utilization Research o: 765-494-1162 | mosiern(a)purdue.edu<mailto:mosiern@purdue.edu> | purdue.edu/abe<http://purdue.edu/abe> [purdue_logo]
