Makerspace Policies

General Guidelines

All Makerspace equipment and supplies are supplied on a first come, first served basis. 

Makerspace Safety

All hair, scarves, jewelry, and loose-fitting clothing should be secured before beginning a project in the Makerspace. 

Keep tables and floor clear of clutter to avoid tripping and accidents. 

Always address a broken tool or machine. Unsure if it’s broken or not working? Ask a staff member! 

Food Policies

No food in the Makerspace.

Closed drink containers and drinks with straws allowed.

Keep drinks away from equipment. 

Environment/Atmosphere Policies

No phone calls in the lab. 

Working in groups is encouraged, but this is a work space. Do not invite friends who will not be working, or save seats for those not physically present. 

Training 

Students must receive training to use certain equipment safely and may not operate such equipment unless approved by a technology specialist.

If you're unsure of how something works or how to do something, ask a staff member!

Access to Spaces

Students may request to use the Makerspace within the hours of 8 AM to 6 PM on weekdays when classes are in session.
