Housing:

Prosser has a small (11 room) student dormitory from which rooms may be rented at a nominal cost.  However, the dorm does not allow children or pets.  Other housing (such as room, apartment, and house rentals) is available in Prosser.  Contact your major advisor for help in finding housing.

 

Offices and Desks:

Office and desk space is limited so you may either be in a graduate student office or have desk space in a lab. Your major advisor will request space for you from the Space Committee Chair.

 

Keys:

To obtain keys for Hamilton Hall, your office, labs, greenhouses, etc., see Bill Juezler. Security is the responsibility of everyone, so please assume responsibility for locking your office and lab doors after regular hours.  For weekend and “after hours” use of Hamilton Hall, please make certain that the doors have fully closed and are securely locked after you use them.

 

Staff Assistance:

Limited staff assistance is available; consult with your advisor for specifics.

 

Copy Machine Use:

The copy machine is in the mailroom.  Your advisor will have a copy code. Graduate students may not use the copy machine to copy any personal material such as classroom notes, term papers, books, theses, etc.  When in doubt, consult your advisor.

 

Research Supplies:

Determination of appropriate purchase will be made between the student and advisor.  Consumable purchases may be made with a program’s P-card.  For larger purchases (e.g., equipment) or purchases that cannot be made with a P-card, Bill Juezler is the purchasing agent and will help you with your purchase.
