Comments: Selected: ARRAY(0x161f4b4)
Quiet space with few distractions to focus on work | Selected: ARRAY(0x1625e24)
Natural light and privacy are most important. Proximity to people in my own department is not important, but I do want to be close to other _faculty_ | Selected: ARRAY(0x162b2bc)
If I could control the heat, that would be marvelous. It is usually about 80 degrees, and that is impossible to be productive in. | Selected: ARRAY(0x162db74)
Quiet area for writing and grading papers. | Selected: ARRAY(0x162dca4)
Your survey tool doesn't seem to be working. I'm only able to enter numbers for 2 of the above questions. For what it's worth, my response to all is either a 1 or 2. | Selected: ARRAY(0x1631964)
Proximity to collections (library) | Selected: ARRAY(0x163861c)
None of these are very important. Questions 5 and 6 are more important. |

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). |

Comments:
The low noise level, the adequate amount of space, the ability to talk to and work with students and colleagues in private. |
Excellent office. |
Privacy |
It has a door. |
Anderson office - proximity to chemistry lab (309) |
It is easily accessible to students and colleagues. |
I'm close to the people and materials I work with. Also, I have a window. |
View, light, control temperature, ability to have private conversations |

Comments:
My space is adequate. |
Far from laboratory (Natural Science Labs are down the road a bit). |
Lack of light/view |
It is impossibly hot with a noisy heating system that constantly pours heat in. |
I'm unable to get things done because of the noise. |
none wrt AD 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. |

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 |

Quiet. Sorry to keep harping on this, but it's impossible to concentrate when several other people are talking loudly. |
none wrt AD space |
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. |

Comments:
A pub |
Common area (fridge, microwave) with seating for lunch. |
Open gathering areas like a kitchenette and student lounge "zones" |
Someplace I can eat, visit, and wash dishes (that does not have toilets) |
A research laboratory space that is near both my office and teaching spaces. |
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. |
