UTL operates on a buddy system, so make sure you have at least one other person with you at all times in lab. Every time you enter the lab, be sure to sign in on the [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfejDOAbCvokh5BE3g38dZtpTzeMRDg0lL8AzqgAB0Re8nb8A/viewform?c=0&w=1 UTL sign-in form] and check in with the [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VVwN54UawYcZKRtW4f62dEiJroYxLaSgLtVFo5u6Axk/edit lifeguard] (usually a BioE or ChemE grad student) on duty. SSI students have permission to work in the Uytengsu Teaching Lab without a lifeguard present as long as there is a safety officer (usually a Bio team co-lead) with you. Current SSI safety officers are Alan Tomusiak and Cynthia Hao. You must still sign in if there is no lifeguard. Lab coats must be worn at all times in lab.
