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(0x1567dac)

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(0x1566824)

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(0x15738ec)

All of the above are top priorities (except I do not have much in the way of specialized professional equipment). I do not see these as personal preferences, but as necessary components to my job.

Selected: ARRAY(0x1570414)

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).

Selected: Very satisfied

I have switched offices three times in the four plus years I've been at UAS and feel this is the best fit for me. If I could change anything, it would definitely be the addition of a window with natural light, preferably with a view.

The quality that I like MOST about my current workspace is:

Valid	Missing	Mean

Comments:

natural light

the view

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

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.

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

area to be able to meet with students and work with them on problems; natural light

It has a door.

Ability to conduct dirty and noisy fabrication.

Proximity of classrooms, students, colleagues

Quiet and private to meet with students, other faculty, and to hold distance (Elluminate or other) sessions.

Valid	Missing	Mean
24	2	NA

Comments:

marginal acoustic privacy.

the proximity to shared copy machine and printer. A bit noisy

My space is adequate.

Proximity to the construction. It is loud and affects my ability to concentrate at times.

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.

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

temperature is not controllable. It is sometimes like a sauna if I leave the door closed.

It is impossibly hot with a noisy heating system that constantly pours heat in.

Obnoxious lighting, lack of window, inability to control the temperature, limited size.

Hike upstairs and downstairs to access staff and xerox machine and parking

It's usually cold - but that isn't much of a problem as it's easy to deal with.

none wrt AD space

the overhead fluorescent lighting

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.

Feels a bit isolated at times.

locking files, large bookshelves, good desk, comfortable chair

large bookshelf; one set of locking file cabinets; large desk area to work with students; enough room for a chair for me and up to 2 other chairs for when people come into the office to talk

relative silence at times for recording audio, locking files

Shelving, cabinets, electrical outlets

Reliable Internet connection and locking door.

matching furniture

I like my current space

A window that can help me keep the place cool and with fresh air.

Better lighting

proximity to central gathering place for colleagues

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

none wrt AD space

a different light source other than the overhead fluorescent lights

desk and furniture that was designed to be used in an open room office

different lighting.

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.

A window with natural light

A functioning thermostat

What ONE THING would make the overall campus workplace setting more inviting--a place that you'd like to spend more time with colleagues and students?

Valid	Missing	Mean
22	4	NA

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

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.

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.

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.

I actually like the setup where I am now. I enjoy working in my department.

Someplace I can eat, visit, and wash dishes (that does not have toilets)

A proper, dedicated art gallery

Faculty gathering place

A research laboratory space that is near both my office and teaching spaces.

better parking

an old time library room with a fireplace and soft chairs.

Break rooms / lunch rooms. Right now I generally end up eating lunch by myself. A convenient and comfortable break room would improve camaraderie.

A faculty lounge / meeting space / presentation space would be great. However, if there is a decision to be made for available funds, individual offices for every faculty member should be available before any money is spent on any other improvements.
