Purdue for ME tours - Laboratory Showcases Needed
by Zachary Daniel Sigafoes 06 Feb '25

06 Feb '25

Hello team, I am reaching out to see if there are any faculty members that have an interest in having their lab space showcased during breakout tours during the Purdue for ME's scheduled tour events. All that is needed is for a lab member (or yourself) to be present and speak a little about the research lab and the work that goes on there. It is a shame that these touring events are happening at the same time as we are moving research space around, but that cannot be avoided at this time. The first Purdue for Me's tour is next Friday, February 14th and they're looking to block about 45 minutes for me to give a walking tour of the ME spaces in Indy. I would bring a group of admitted ME students for the fall 26' term to your lab space and there would be an opportunity for your lab to be showcased to that group of students. If you are interested, please let me know. Ideally, I would feature two labs on these Purdue for ME tour days (2/14, 3/7 & 4/11). Sincerely, Zach Sigafoes - Executive Assistant Purdue University Indianapolis zsigafoe(a)purdue.edu<mailto:zsigafoe@purdue.edu> - 765.495.7703 [cid:a509ea06-9a7f-4c6a-8a9b-b74a5cf60398]

2 Unclaimed Deliveries
by Zachary Daniel Sigafoes 30 Jan '25

30 Jan '25

Hi team, I have a delivery from Milipore and a delivery containing lens cleaning wipes that have been accepted and are in my office in the SL 260 suite. They do not have a person listed on the packing slip or shipping label. If you think they may belong to you, please schedule a time to collect them from the SL 260 Suite at your convenience. Sincerely, Zach Sigafoes - Executive Assistant Purdue University Indianapolis zsigafoe(a)purdue.edu<mailto:zsigafoe@purdue.edu> - 765.495.7703 [cid:02457457-ab1e-4960-a445-27fa43e16741]

Engineering Delivery Information - Please List SUITE NUMBER & NAME
by Zachary Daniel Sigafoes 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Hello team, I'm reaching out to inform us that deliveries have been received without the mention of a suite address (mostly Mechanical Engineering). Some of these deliveries have been ending up in IU offices since the delivery employees aren't sure where they're intending to go. I've been asked to ensure that we're being extra intentional with putting out suite address on the delivery so that they're not going to IU facilities or getting lost in the process. If there are any Purdue specific deliveries that find their way to an IU office, they may get redirected to me and I plan to reach out to the intended recipient(s) as needed. We're doing our best to ensure that all deliveries make it to the intended recipient(s) and I appreciate your cooperation. Sincerely, Zach Sigafoes - Executive Assistant Purdue University Indianapolis zsigafoe(a)purdue.edu<mailto:zsigafoe@purdue.edu> - 765.495.7703 [cid:78a0b853-6ff2-43bd-8f44-ee463acb6633] ________________________________ From: Hastings-Smith, Lisa L <lishasti(a)iu.edu> Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2025 10:27 AM To: Zachary Daniel Sigafoes <zsigafoe(a)purdue.edu> Cc: Chouinard, Cathy <cjchouin(a)iu.edu>; Gonzales, Eirika Osp <eoarnard(a)iu.edu>; Gutierrez, Melissa Veronica <mvgutier(a)iu.edu>; Licht, Kathy J. <klicht(a)iu.edu>; Day, Tiffany Joy <tiffday(a)iu.edu> Subject: RE: [External] Re: Question about delivery address ---- External Email: Use caution with attachments, links, or sharing data ---- EES Team, Zach is the administrative assistant in Mechanical Engineering (SL 260). He’s also helping Electrical Engineering (SL 160) because they don’t have any staff. When we receive deliveries that do not belong to us, please email Zach (zsigafoe(a)purdue.edu<mailto:zsigafoe@purdue.edu>) to let him know we have packages that likely belong to ME or ECE. Hi Zach, I hope you’re well! We continue to receive packages delivered to SL 118 that are: 1. Addressed to an engineering faculty member with no office number indicated (only 723 W. Michigan St.); 2. Addressed to an engineering faculty member with office SL 118 indicated; 3. Addressed to 723 W. Michigan St with no name (but it’s not ours); and 4. Addressed to 723 W. Michigan St, SL 118 with no name (but it’s not ours) Right now, we have a package for Shawn Wei, two packages with no name, and an Amazon package for Chris Warnock. Will you please reach out to Purdue procurement and the MEE, ECE, and MTSP faculty/staff/graduate students to make sure that they are entering their name and SL 260 as part of the address? As far as limited characters, using ‘723 W. Michigan St’ obviously uses fewer characters than '723 West Michigan Street Room' to enable an office number. We want to make sure that your packages make it to the right people, but we’re also getting a bit aggravated about dealing with these incorrect deliveries. This has been happening on a regular basis only since the end of last semester, so it’s clearly related to the IU/PU realignment. Thanks for your help! Best, Lisa Lisa Hastings-Smith Advisor & Coordinator of Graduate Programs Dept of Mathematical Sciences, LD 270 Dept of Earth & Environmental Sciences, SL 118 [cid:image001.png@01DB7169.A774B530] From: Zachary Daniel Sigafoes <zsigafoe(a)purdue.edu> Sent: Friday, January 24, 2025 9:17 AM To: Hastings-Smith, Lisa L <lishasti(a)iu.edu> Subject: [External] Re: Question about delivery address This message was sent from a non-IU address. Please exercise caution when clicking links or opening attachments from external sources. Mornin' Lisa, Hope you're doing well. Ordering is done through the office of procurement. Students/faculty usually have their orders requested and they are sent to a separate team to fulfill the order (Like Buy.IU except you can only send a request). Unfortunately I cannot confirm what was entered from both the student and procurement user. I did assist Guangqi (Jian's RA) with finding three deliveries in the mailroom yesterday and on those deliveries they wrote with a black marker to take them to SL 118. They crossed it out with another color and said 'wrong' which makes sense since they're supposed to go to SL 260. On the delivery address, they had '723 West Michigan Street Room' so I'm going to assume that they could only fit so many characters in the line. I hope this makes sense, but at the end of the day sometimes its user error in the address line if they don't enter a second line or if procurement doesn't spot it. Since they process hundreds of orders daily, I can imagine small instances like this being overlooked or they don't have enough info provided to prevent a delivery mishap. Kindly, Zach Sigafoes - Executive Assistant Purdue University Indianapolis zsigafoe(a)purdue.edu<mailto:zsigafoe@purdue.edu> - 765.495.7703 [cid:image002.png@01DB7169.A774B530] ________________________________ From: Hastings-Smith, Lisa L <lishasti(a)iu.edu<mailto:lishasti@iu.edu>> Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2025 4:59 PM To: Zachary Daniel Sigafoes <zsigafoe(a)purdue.edu<mailto:zsigafoe@purdue.edu>> Subject: Question about delivery address ---- External Email: Use caution with attachments, links, or sharing data ---- Hi Zach, I hope you’re well. Tomorrow is FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! We continue to receive packages addressed to and delivered to SL 118 that are for other departments. The most recent was the one for Jian Xie that his grad student got from the mailroom today. Can you please confirm that SL 270 was the delivery address entered for that order? We think that the vendor might be screwing this up. Thanks!
