by Jennifer Louise Fifer 21 Aug '20

21 Aug '20

Hello MSE Researchers, The teaching labs (ARMS 2093, ARMS 2130-2191) are reserved from 7am-10pm Tuesday/Thursday for Undergrad lab class activities only (MSE 235, 335, 367, 430). This means you will not be allowed to use these spaces at those times. These slots are already removed from PASS as a result. Please plan your research activities around this information.

New COVID-19 SOP Requirement
by Jennifer Louise Fifer 17 Aug '20

17 Aug '20

Hello MSE Researchers, Protect Purdue as of last Friday is now requiring physical signatures in their format on all COVID-19 SOPs to be present in lab spaces. I have printed off several copies of their signature page for each lab and attached it to door. There is no need to make any extra trips into ARMS in order to fulfill this requirement. Next time you schedule lab time, please sign the signature page as you walk into the lab for your scheduled time. Note: Students and Post-docs will still need to fill out the COVID-19 SOP survey in Brightspace for MSE's records. Regards, Jenni Fifer Safety & Mechanical Testing Lab Technician Materials Science & Engineering Purdue University Phone: 765-494-9718 Email: fiferj(a)purdue.edu
