- Notebook reclamation project - 2025 edition
- Time: 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
- Place: 3328 Chamberlin
- Abstract: As you are likely aware, a large number of lab notebooks are abandoned each semester by students in physics undergrad classes. Rather than leaving these to hit the garbage or collect dust in grad offices, I invite you to help reclaim them!
1 – If you have abandoned notebooks in your office (whether from your students or notebooks that were there when you moved in!), bring them to 3328 CH by Thursday, Aug 28.
2 – Join us to help strip out and recycle the used pages (no need to sign up – just come help!)
3- Need a notebook? Reclaimed notebooks will be free for the taking in the CH lobby (next to the mural). We’ll add to the stack after each of the above sessions.
One bonus about this project is that you have a place to go with all of the abandoned notebooks that are cluttering up your offices. . and another is that you might never need to purchase another notebook for your own work!
