You asked, and we listened. Starting in January 2024, one of our safety team advisors will host a monthly open Zoom meeting for anyone on campus to drop in and ask any safety-related question you have. If you don’t have a question, come anyway. We will have a 1-2 slide presentation each month to cover one of the top issues we see during our annual lab reviews.
Meetings will be the 3rd Wednesday of each month from 1:00-2:00pm. In order to join the meeting, your HawkID and password will be required.
