ATTENTION!!!!

ELEVATOR PITCH FROM THE DEAN TEAM:
(see what we did there? 😆)

Elevator use is reserved for individuals with mobility challenges or for those transporting heavy boxes, equipment, furniture, etc. 

All able-bodied individuals should be using the stairs. Please speak with your grade-level Dean if you need special permission. Students using the elevator without special permission or a demonstrated need will be issued an infraction. 

The elevator is a vital resource for those who need it. By prioritizing usage for individuals who are not physically able to use the stairs, we contribute to a more accessible and inclusive community. Your cooperation is really appreciated!!
