If I could control the heat, that would be marvelous. It is usually about 80 degrees, and that is impossible to be productive in. |

Comments:
natural light |
The low noise level, the adequate amount of space, the ability to talk to and work with students and colleagues in 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 |
It is my own private office. |
It has a door. |
I can shut my door and work alone, with only a few interruptions |
I can close the door. |

Comments:
marginal acoustic privacy. |
My space is adequate. |
Proximity to the construction. It is loud and affects my ability to concentrate at times. |
I do not have a nice view. |
It is impossibly hot with a noisy heating system that constantly pours heat in. |
I am next to a conference room and a loud colleague, which filters into my workplace. |
Quite a bit of noise from neighboring offices. |

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. |
A pub |
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. |
Having better parking and a campus that you have more than one entrance. |
Someplace I can eat, visit, and wash dishes (that does not have toilets) |
Less concrete outside, more green space. Have the faculty in one building, different floors for different departments. |
It is pretty sweet as it is |

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. |

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. |
