> My department chair just suggested that we order some of them in a "thicker plexi" so they can be repurposed as demonstration shields, something I have been advocating for for several years now.

Just a quick heads-up: I would check to see what kinds of plastic are available to buy as part of your research on this idea. We found that the cost of plastic shield went up 4x this summer as similar systems went up in many different sectors of the economy and that many forms of plastic sheeting had significant lead times when they are available.
