to purchase them at your expense. Proper goggles can be purchased
from the VWR Stockroom in Room 56-068. Hours are from 8am-12pm and
1pm-4:30 pm, Mon-Fri. The goggles cost around $11 and acceptable

sure that the Lab Director
has approved them before you use them
in the lab. Please make sure to obtain goggles before you begin
5.351 experiments. (You do not need them for Check In although we
encourage you to acquire goggles as soon as possible)
Lab Coats
