Classroom etiquette

Classroom space is shared by many; complying with these rules is appreciated by all.

  • Leave the space at the end of your scheduled period. Rooms are scheduled with short intervals (5 to 10 minutes) between users, and your delay in leaving the space will delay the next group’s start time.
  • Don’t assume an empty classroom is available. Not all classes start and stop at the same time—we share space with a variety of users who operate on different schedules.
  • Put tables and chairs back to their original setup. If you rearrange furniture, return tables and chairs to the setup shown on the diagram next to the door. Also, be careful not to block exits with tables or chairs to allow free egress during an emergency.
  • Food and drink are allowed in all classrooms except for Dengerink Administration Building, Room 110 and the computer labs. Please call 360-546-9000 if a spill occurs or if you plan to hold a party—extra trash cans will be provided.
  • Please remove all materials at the end of your scheduled period. This includes information on white and bulletin boards. These rooms are used by many, so space taken up on the boards is space others can’t use.
