Lab/office access control: check in/out procedure
by Chen, Jun 28 Mar '25

28 Mar '25

Dear colleagues, As we are preparing for the upcoming lab move, I am sending you the instructions for get keys or card access to your labs/offices. The access request must be sent by the PI so please do NOT have students or postdocs to submit the request. This means the PI is responsible for initial screening of access control. The following procedure will be followed from now on. All access requests will be reviewed/approved by Departmental Facility Manager (not by the school). The PI may request lab access by sending the following check-in information to Building Deputy (Tiffany Lewallen, tlewalle(a)purdue.edu<mailto:tlewalle@purdue.edu>) and cc Departmental Facility Manager (David Schippnick, dschippn(a)purdue.edu<mailto:dschippn@purdue.edu>). 1. Full name of the person who needs access 2. Email 3. Location of new lab 4. Purdue-Crimson Card information (#s located on the back of the card under the black strip) 5. Justification of request (why does this person need access) 6. Required Training? If needed For check-out, please send Tiffany and David name of each key holder and include serial # engraved on the key that needs returned. Tiffany will notify you how to return the keys. Once the school notified PIs the office assignment for graduate students, the PI needs to request the access to the offices for his/her students. Questions about this check-in/out procedure should be directed to Dave and Tiffany. Thanks, Jun =================================================== Jun Chen, PhD Professor, Associate Head for Facilities and Operations School of Mechanical Engineering, Purdue University 585 Purdue Mall, West Lafayette, IN 47907 Office: ME2198 Phone: 765-494-7050 Email: junchen(a)purdue.edu<mailto:junchen@purdue.edu> (or chen220(a)purdue.edu<mailto:chen220@purdue.edu>)

Important: lab moving and student spae
by Chen, Jun 25 Mar '25

25 Mar '25

Dear ME-Indy Colleagues, We appreciate many of you for your efforts to prepare for the upcoming lab move. The moving company will pick up chemicals this Thursday (03/27) and will do the moving from next Monday morning (03/31). All the moves will be completed next week. Most of the groups did not request storage space so far. The school will NOT sign lease with rental facilities if there is no such need. Important: graduate students and postdocs are NOT allowed to have desk spaces in research labs. Every PI please request desk space for your students/postdocs from the following link. https://purdue.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0NuyhC5ruRj2YoS<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpurdue.ca…> You are reminded that this application is required every year from now on even for space renewal. We only work with PIs so please do NOT send this link to students. At West Lafayette, the school assigns certain number of desks to each PI who submits the request. Most WL groups need to create an internal sharing mechanism within the group to maximize the space use – this is pursued by the university. The school is asked to monitor the usage and claim back any space, if it is not correctly used, in middle of the year. At West Lafayette, the priority is given to postdocs and graduate students with RA supports. The school will NOT assign desk spaces to undergraduate students. This practice has been in place for several years at West Lafayette, and we are duplicating this model to ME-Indy now. The current plan for Indy is to assign ME graduate students and postdocs to graduate hub immediately after the lab moving to minimize the disturbance to research. So please fill in the request by this Friday (03/28). The assignment decision will be sent to the PI after all requests are reviewed. We are waiting for the access control procedure for labs/offices from Purdue Administrative Operation (AO). I will send out another email with checklists for check in and check out keys, once I get them from AO. Let me know if you have any questions. Regards, Jun =================================================== Jun Chen, PhD Professor, Associate Head for Facilities and Operations School of Mechanical Engineering, Purdue University 585 Purdue Mall, West Lafayette, IN 47907 Office: ME2198 Phone: 765-494-7050 Email: junchen(a)purdue.edu<mailto:junchen@purdue.edu> (or chen220(a)purdue.edu<mailto:chen220@purdue.edu>)
