ANNOUNCEMENTS 
Monday, January 19, is a University Holiday.
Mandatory Attendance:
All-User Meetings [User = anyone using any Birck laboratories and/or
cleanroom.] It is required that all users attend one of these meetings
and highly recommended that faculty attend as well. The agenda will
cover policy updates and changes, general information for the Birck
community, and critical safety information.

Wednesday, 21 January 2009       and Thursday, 22 January 2009 
6:00 PM – 7:30 PM each night
Lilly Hall Room 1105 each night

You mustbring your badge — either your Birck ID
or your Purdue ID — to the meeting. We will be using an electronic
check-in procedure and you will need your ID to receive credit for
attending. You must be on time for the meeting. The
doors will close at 6:00 PM and no one will be admitted after that
time. The annual chemical Right to Know (RtK) information, required by
law, will be presented at this meeting. Therefore, anyone not attending
an all-user meeting will have access to the cleanroom and laboratories
removed. Please contact JOHN WEAVER (jrweaver at purdue.edu) — or any Engineering Staff member — if you have any questions.
