It is important to remember that your appearance and interactions with faculty, staff, students, administrators, and visitors to the university leave an impression of our department. Etiquette Food and Beverage: Do not place perishable food waste in office space and conference room trash cans. Use the lunch room trash can as it is emptied daily. Limit food at your desk - especially heated foods or aromatic foods as the smell travels throughout the building. If you consume coffee/tea that is available to staff in the lunch room, you are expected to buy your communal share. Office Space : Remember that voices carry; therefore, please respect your neighbors. Use low volume or headsets when using a radio/computer. Avoid talking over the top of cubicles or across corridors. Consider using a conference room for longer meetings. Individual Office Space : Refrain from using someone’s computer and/or office space without permission.

Avoid going through someone’s personal mailbox, papers on desk, etc. Weekly, the custodians will empty trash in your office space; you will need to keep your office space tidy and professional looking.
