Lab coats are important! However, some students in "100 level" courses won't see the inside of a chemistry lab ever again (i.e. engineering students, nursing students, dental hygiene). At that level you can teach the same principals with less risky experiments that don't require lab coats.

 

Thank you,

** External Email **

All,

I am trying to find any information regarding the requirement of the use of a lab coat by students in general chemistry labs vs. upper level courses such as organic, advance lab, inorganic, etc. Does ACS have recommendations/guidelines to that end? What are some of your experiences at your institutions? Thank you in advance.

 

Regards,

Denise
