05 Jul '18

? Dear all, The temperature in RO 256, 257 and 240 is much improved today. Classroom doors have been left open to improve the air quality for tonight's classes. Please continue to update me on climate issues. Although I have not opened all of the faculty offices, the temperature in the GSLIS main office suite, as well as my office is comfortable.

Gslisadjuncts Lack of AC in GSLIS classrooms/labs
by Colleen Cool 03 Jul '18

03 Jul '18

?Dear faculty teaching during summer session 2, I am aware of the lack of AC in our main office, classrooms and computer lab. We had hoped that B&G might have been able to activate the auxiliary AC units in RO 240, but as of this evening that has not been accomplished. I understand that yesterday's evening classes were let out early due to the unbearable conditions. I will follow up on Thursday with QC administration about this unacceptable situation, but in the meantime please send me a message describing your own classroom experiences yesterday and today so that I can properly state our case. My best, Colleen Colleen Cool, MLS, PhD Professor and Chair GSLIS Rosenthal 254 Queens College/CUNY 65-30 Kissena Blvd. Flushing, N.Y. 11367 (718) 997-3790
