We used to do the same, but after our remodel they each have their own drawer.

At Farmingdale State the Chemistry Department provided glassware locker space for pairs of students. The students are expected to keep both their lab coats and giggles there.

Goo morning,

 

For those campuses that require lab coats in their chemistry laboratories, how are you handling storage?   We have wall to wall fume hoods in our upper division organic labs and no place to put lab coats.   The Chemistry department has recently instituted a lab coat policy in upper division labs where the hazards warrant them.  We have a brand new beautiful building they are housed in, however no lab coat storage.  Upper administration does not want anything put in the hallways.  So far, they have come up with extra large ziploc bags in which to put their lab coats into and store in their glassware drawers. 

 

Any other ideas out there?
