    If only parking was enforced in the handicapped area and fire lanes; never has been for the 10 years I've been here. VERY FRUSTRATING when able-bodied folks park there. Unfortunately it appears it's going to take a tragedy to get this enforced.

    The space wouldn't be bad if people who are frequently on conference calls or have meetings have more of their own space instead of being in a shared one.
    Selected: Somewhat dissatisfied
    We weren't given any real choice; we were told what we were getting and had to adapt.

    I have sufficient desk space for what I need.
    Handicapped parking area next to office (although unenforced so others park there all the time :(  )
    Enough personal and shared space.  Working in close proximity w other SOE staff. Plenty of natural light & great view.

    Loud coworkers in the shared space. You can't escape the sound when you need to.

  25.  What ONE THING would make your current workspace more inviting and appealing?

    Valid Missing Mean
    3 1 NA
    Comments:
    More of an open space that isn't divided by tall cubicle walls. I'm the only one in my space that faces towards the door. Everyone else has their back to the door which seems like it is not very inviting to people entering the office.
    More space.
    N/A

  27.  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
    3 1 NA
    Comments:
    Not sure
    Lounge with chairs/couch where we could take breaks away from our office and lay down if needed.
    Finish construction projects so there is adequate parking!
  28.  
  29.  What other comments do you have about improving uas work spaces and the overall UAS work place environment?

    Valid Missing Mean
    3 1 NA
    Comments:
    Departments shouldn't be so split up. Appropriate positions should be grouped together in a space if space needs to be utilized more efficiently (i.e. admin staff in an open area with faculty and advisers in a place with a closeable door/more soundproof.
    More ADA compliance.
    We're good...!
