Questions below refer to the following notice and form.
Notice to all Biology and Chemistry students
The Science Department will no longer be supplying students with glass test tubes. From the beginning of next month, students in the Biology and Chemistry Departments will have to bring their own test tubes to class.
In the past, a lot of money has been wasted by the school lab trying to replace broken test tubes. We are afraid that we can no longer afford to do this.
Test tubes are being sold at the school bookstore, located in Newman Hall. The cost is $1.00 per test tube. We have attached an example order form. It is advisable for all Biology and Chemistry students to place large orders in advance. If you do this, you can get a reduced price of ten test tubes for $8.50. Simply fill out the order form and take it to the store at least one week before you need your test tubes. Of course, you may buy test tubes directly from the store, but you will be limited to two tubes at one time. There is no limit on orders placed using the form below.
It is important to note that there are two kinds of test tubes on store at the bookstore: glass and plastic. Only glass test tubes will be allowed in chemistry classes; however, biology classes will permit either glass or plastic test tubes. It will be possible to use the test tube cleaning equipment in the laboratories. Time will be allotted at the end of each session to allow students to clean their tubes. For security purposes, I am afraid that you will not be able to store your tubes in the labs.
Thank you for you cooperation.
