My university-assigned workspace is currently IDEAL. | Selected: ARRAY(0x158fdf4)
Figuring out by now that "university-assigned workspace" means office (or it should - if it means something else, I don't like the euphemism), it's not an issue of proximity for me, but first of all confidentiality for students, and second of all peace and quiet to get work done. (I see now, this is the next question...) | Selected: ARRAY(0x1590ddc)
Private adequate office space | Selected: ARRAY(0x1591ca4)

A Bullpen would absolutely not be appropriate | Selected: ARRAY(0x15891bc)
I worked for several years in a cubicle in Hendrickson and it was truly a disaster. Students were very upset at the lack of confidential private space and I found I could not do my writing or grading with all the conversations going on. | Selected: ARRAY(0x158e1d4)
A full closed door office crucial, one that accommodate all of these needs. At present, I don't have the room for the kind of file cabinets I need, but the top three needs expressed here are met. | Selected: ARRAY(0x158c87c)
Quiet and private space is necessary for any faculty member who advises students. In education, we do a lot of distance courses and we need quiet private areas to do this. If they are not available, we will have to conduct our business off campus. | Selected: ARRAY(0x1591c74)
Again, survey tool only allows entry for one question. I'd answer 1 to all except personal file cabinets and for that I'd answer 3 | Selected: ARRAY(0x159c86c)
All of these are of about equal importance |

My laboratory, NSRL 203 lacks temperature control to the extent that my instrumentation is at risk. Too often do I find the temp in that room at 80 degrees or higher. Less frequently, as well as less threatening to my instrumentation, are periods of extreme cold (less than 65 degrees). |

The low noise level, the adequate amount of space, the ability to talk to and work with students and colleagues in private. |
It is private. |
That it is a private office for advising students and for working uninterrupted by other things that may be going on in the open spaces of the department |
professional ambiance and beautiful view |
Excellent office. |
Quiet area with privacy (office with a door). Nice view. Close to colleagues |
Privacy for discussion with students/colleagues. |
It is my own private office. |
Even though small, it's a private office that I can hold confidential conversations in. I also can keep those tools around me within arms reach that I use constantly. |
Privacy and room for conferencing with students, colleagues or staff. |
Everything. Cannot specify any one quality |
I have a private office that locks. |
The private space with a door. It's very important to me to have a room I can work in with privacy. I very much like the window too. |
The window and the door to the outside. |
My window |
Quiet with lots of space |
Privacy; ability to close the door. |
area to be able to meet with students and work with them on problems; natural light |
It's in the Soboleff Annex - a calm space, good for meeting colleagues, students, and has a nice view. |
Proximity of classrooms, students, colleagues |
I can shut my door and work alone, with only a few interruptions |
My space is private enough to conduct a distance learning class, quiet enough to work, and close to other coworkers. |
Quiet and private to meet with students, other faculty, and to hold distance (Elluminate or other) sessions. |
Anderson office - proximity to chemistry lab (309) |
I can close the door. |

Comments:
marginal acoustic privacy. |
the proximity to shared copy machine and printer. A bit noisy |
My space is adequate. |
The window doesn't open and it's often much too warm in the building. |
Proximity to the construction. It is loud and affects my ability to concentrate at times. |
thin walls |
Far from laboratory (Natural Science Labs are down the road a bit). |
Very close to noisy student use area. |
I do not have a nice view. |
It's SMALL comparatively. |
It's perfect. |
There isn't anything I do not like about it |
Students can see into my office. I normally work with my door open, but there are times when it would be helpful to be here working without being visible. |
Thin walls; it is easy to hear conversations going on next door. |
the chalkboard walls |
It is far from campus and overall is not a very comfortable work environment |
Very crowded in shared areas. |
temperature is not controllable. It is sometimes like a sauna if I leave the door closed. |
No immediate access to a printer or photocopier. |
Hike upstairs and downstairs to access staff and xerox machine and parking |
I am next to a conference room and a loud colleague, which filters into my workplace. |
I would like the ability to control the temperature. |
It's usually cold - but that isn't much of a problem as it's easy to deal with. |
none wrt AD space |
Quite a bit of noise from neighboring offices. |
It can only accommodate the desk in one direction. The space is tight. |
the overhead fluorescent lighting |
Often noisy. |
open room with ill fitting desks and space |
When leaving work it is difficult to enter Egan Hwy. north in the heavy traffic. Sometimes requiring as much as a 15 min. wait. |
No door, but given choice between window and door, I'll take the window. |
Feels a bit isolated at times. |
Cannot control temperature of my office |

Bookshelves, filing cabinets, reasonable space for one or two student to sit comfortably and speak privately, if necessary. |
locking files |
none |
I work in a department that processes all the physical materials passing in and out of the library collection. This can be a lot of items (for instance a donation of hundreds of items) and also large items (for instance large maps). I need to be able to keep several book trucks in or near my area, as does the staff in my department |
What is special about bookshelves, and lockable files? I a lot of table surface space. |

Nothing - although it's a little small, I think it's almost perfect for my needs. |

A skylight |
Desk reconfiguration |
a different light source other than the overhead fluorescent lights |
Availability of a kitchen sink; washing dishes in the bathroom is nasty. |
desk and furniture that was designed to be used in an open room office |
different lighting. |
It would help if I cleaned it up! Having a door or higher privacy wall would be nice but I am used to what I have. |
I wish it opened into a common area. This would make the office feel more secure, it would allow me to keep my door open in winter and would allow for better air circulation, and would create a space to interact with colleagues over coffee breaks, etc. |

Comments:
equitable distribution of good office space (I moved 6 times before landing in my office!)--altho' more shared social spaces--a real cafe, better food services with pleasant atmosphere--would rank a close second. |
Its fine as is |
A pub |
Storage for the misc. junk that gets stuffed in hallways, classrooms, offices, and every other available space! |
a more comfortable coffee shop area. I would like to see more comfortable furniture near Spikes in the common space outside the library. That has the potential for an active meeting area but doesn't have a comfortable feel about it. It has a great view and could be much better with chairs and couches that would invite people sitting and talking. |
faculty lounge |
Common area (fridge, microwave) with seating for lunch. |
less construction. |
Faculty lounge. |
Having better parking and a campus that you have more than one entrance. |
More IT Bandwidth, more bandwidth, more bandwidth.......... |
Ability to drive through the campus as was the case prior -- this would make it easier to spend more time with others. |
Can't think of anything |
It would be great to have a meeting room for our department. |
Better eating options. |
A good place to eat, seriously. I never eat the Mourant cafeteria. |
natural full spectrum lighting |
I actually like the setup where I am now. I enjoy working in my department. |
A faculty lounge and better food service. |
Faculty gathering place |
Less concrete outside, more green space. Have the faculty in one building, different floors for different departments. |
Adequate parking in maintained lots would be welcomed. |
A research laboratory space that is near both my office and teaching spaces. |
It is pretty sweet as it is |
Student union (student activity center), faculty lounge, accessible walk around lake. |
I am very fortunate to have such a nice office; I am definitely in the minority. I would love a few places to sit or eat lunch/snacks outdoors in a green or grassy area (NOT in the horrible bricked up space where greenery has been largely eliminated. |
better parking |
an old time library room with a fireplace and soft chairs. |
Things that would be nice: student union type space with a fireplace; decent array of vending machines; not losing any more parking spaces. |
Break rooms / lunch rooms. Right now I generally end up eating lunch by myself. A convenient and comfortable break room would improve camaraderie. |

Tough question - administrative duties far outweigh the amount of time I have to spend on classes, although I do teach primarily distance. |

none in my "university assigned workspace," but I spend 12 hours a week teaching in a classroom created from one of the offices in the department for online (hybrid) teaching. |

This varies drastically by semester. This semester I am spending approximately 8-10 hours a week working on a distance course because I only have 1 distance course this semester. Other semesters it may be more. |

don't teach online |
10 hours of teaching time are spent on campus. I do all my prep and grading for online teaching on campus as well, which amounts to the rest of the week spent on campus. |
It varies by semester. |
Currently I hold 3 distance classes per week from my office, plus additional review sessions and one-on-one distance sessions as needed. This can be from 4 to 10 hours per week. |

I bought a coffee maker a couple of years ago and now all is well |
I have no complaints and think it is a lovely campus. I really enjoy my workspace and like being here. I know this report is going to UAS leadership and Faculty Senate; it should also be made available for everyone to see the results. What's the secret? |
I would like to make sure that there is sufficient faculty involvement in any workplace planning and decisions. |
Keep faculty in their private offices. |
We seem to have lots of money for physical plant, bricks, paving, etc. - but we can't get enough resources to conduct proper on-line teaching, sufficient IT resources, a lack of sufficient bandwidth, lack of sufficient support. |
It would be hard to improve on what I currently have...space to get things accomplished and meet with colleagues, students and staff and privacy whenever needed for the same. |
Can't think of anything that would apply to me. I really am quite happy with what I have. Really! |
Some of the faculty offices are not very good because of lighting, locking and proximity to colleagues. |
I am fortunate to have moved up the ranks to a private office with a window. Many faculty have interior offices with no windows or heat controls. Others have cubicles with no privacy. The least satisfying part of my job for the first 3 years was the idea of spending ANY time in my dreary office. I hope that decent faculty offices will be a priority in the future! |
A faculty lounge would be very nice. |
Again, I am a little uneasy about the "university-assigned workspace" euphemism. If you are seriously considering something other than offices, I think it should be called by its name and discussed that way. If I have in any way contributed to a discussion that could end up with that kind of a result, I resent being misled into this survey. |
Group faculty offices by discipline Add faculty lounge for interdisciplinary interactions |
Maintaining private offices in order to teach, work in a scholarly manner and collaborate with others is important in the academic setting. |
Improved communication. Better planning and support with appropriate supplies when moving is necessary. |
the windows could be washed a little more often. |
Each tenure track faculty needs to have, at the very least, secure, lockable, private offices. |
You left out noon to 2 in question 19 |
