ANNOUNCEMENTS 
NSAC game night: 
NSAC
will be hosting a game night at Birck on Tuesday, December 9th, from
7-9 pm.  Come play Nintendo Wii (a video game) on the big screens in
the conference rooms or play board games such as Pictionary in the
lobby.  We'll also have cookies and hot chocolate for all.  Everyone at
Birck, their families, and significant others are invited. 

Cleanroom Pre-Gowning Operational Change
 
The pregowning procedure is receiving a minor change. While we
currently have “cubbies” for used hairnets, the hairnets are generally
not being reused.  As a result, we are eliminating hairnet reuse
altogether.  The cubbies that are currently being used for hairnets
will be relocated for use as shoe-cover reuse bins and for safety-glass
holders.
 
Procedure change:  Each time you go through the pregowning procedure, please take a fresh hairnet.
 
This change matches our stated procedures to common practice, and
avoids the cost of purchasing additional bins for shoe covers and
safety glasses as the cleanroom population grows.  Thank you for your
support of this minor change to our procedures. 

NOTARY PUBLIC now in Discovery Park: Jackie Lanter (Burton Morgan); 41335; lanter at purdue.edu.
