Washington University in St. Louis has all u.g. student labs with the Fisher-Hamilton (now Thermo-Electron) glass-walled FH. in their Laboratory Science Building. These are all arranged back to back. Mr. Ed Hiss is the facility manager for that building and can offer you some information. He can be contacted through WUSTL's Chemistry Dept.
