Computer Account and Authorization

Any temporary employee or student who needs a computing account or access to the Q-shared drive should contact Rhonda or Cindy.

Securing the Offices and Bay Area

Both doors of the entrance to the QMP bay are to be kept locked every evening after 6 p.m. If no one is in the bay when you leave for the day, please make sure the doors are secured.

Ordering Supplies

If you need any supplies, see Cindy or Rhonda for access to the cabinet, as we keep this cabinet locked to prevent theft. If you need something that is not in the cabinet, send your request to Cindy at cindyglo@umich.edu. or Rhonda at rmoats@umich.edu. The paper cabinet is also kept locked, but several packages should be out on the counter to be used during off hours.
