General Information
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Building evacuation is required when the fire alarms sound. The Foege Building Evacuation Assembly Point is between Foege and the HSB-K wing (east of Foege, on Skamania Lane, the pedestrian walkway between the halves of Foege). Move well away from the building in case of flying glass or chemical explosions. Lab managers will take roll; let yours know you are there. If you have any questions, please contact our building coordinator, Sonia Honeydew, at soniah2@ u.washington.edu.


Save the date: The departmental Winter Party will be December 11 (Monday) at 4 p.m. All faculty, staff, senior fellows, students, family members, and friends are invited.
