We provide gloves (nitrile if needed) but don't require them.  About 
half of the kids want them.

As the staff of the Chemistry & Biochemistry Teaching Labs, we have been 
asked to propose ideas for saving money, as budgets are only getting 
tighter over the next few years. One idea proposed is that we stop 
providing gloves ad lib. to students, but have them buy & bring their 
own. We currently supply either nitrile or PVC examination (thin, 
single-use) gloves in our labs.
Do you provide/require gloves for student labs?
