We provide latex, nitrile and plastic gloves but don't
require them unless really needed. Obviously leather gloves for
glass tubing work and heat mitts are also available. We do find
our bio students want to wear gloves all the time as many do in bio
lab.

I would like to get some feedback from the list about the use of gloves
in academic teaching labs. Do you require students to wear gloves
all of the time (much like splash goggles), or only in situations where
the likelihood of skin exposure to a particular chemical is
significant. Or, other? And, what kind(s) of disposable
glove(s) are made available to students?
Thanks.
