Renovation of Lennon Hall for the Department of Biological Sciences

9313514 Makarewicz位于布罗克波特的纽约州立大学(SUNY)生物系占用了建于1966年的教学楼列侬大厅。自建成以来，该大学一直致力于教职员工的研究，但这座建筑设施薄弱，无法支持研究和科研培训活动。大多数教员研究实验室都是教室，教室里的桌子被用作实验室的长椅。这些实验室缺乏现代生物学研究所必需的基本电力、通风柜和环境控制。该大学计划对列侬大厅进行大规模翻新，为大楼提供升级的电气系统，安装通风柜，在整个大楼内更换供暖、通风和空调系统，并安装足够的实验室长椅和橱柜。计划中的列侬大厅翻修将使教职员工和学生能够从事以前因建筑条件而不可能进行的研究项目。翻新将为化学品和生物试剂的工作创造安全和健康的环境，并将为先进的研究仪器提供合适的支持系统。它将促进师生联合研究项目，因此将吸引学生学习科学和从事科学职业。***

9313514 Makarewicz The Biology Department of the State University of New York (SUNY) at Brockport occupies Lennon Hall, a classroom building constructed in 1966. Since its construction, the university has made a commitment to faculty research, but this building is poorly equipped to support research and research training activities. Most faculty research labs are classrooms in which tables have been used as lab benches. These labs lack the basic electrical power, fume hoods, and environmental controls that are necessary for modern biological research. The university plans an extensive renovation of Lennon Hall which will provide an upgraded electrical system to the building, installation of fume hoods, a building-wide replacement of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system, and installation of adequate laboratory benches and cabinetry. The planned renovation of Lennon Hall will enable faculty and students to pursue research projects that have previously been impossible due to building conditions. The renovation will create safe and healthy environments for work with chemicals and biological reagents, and will provide suitable support systems for advanced research instrumentation. It will promote joint faculty- student research projects, and as a result will attract students to the study of and careers in science. ***
