Collaborative Workspace
The Collaborative Workspace in Parrington Hall room 121 has been provided in response to student needs, as collaborative work on projects is an essential part of the coursework and the learning experience at the Evans School. An effective space for meeting, planning, creating, previewing, and rehearsing group projects will ease logistical burdens and allow students to focus on the substance of their group efforts.
Availability and Security
An Evans School student must reserve the workspace and be present during workspace use.
The Collaborative Workspace is open 24 hours. The door will be unlocked during business hours (8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday). After hours and weekend access to the room requires your Husky card, similar to building access. (Reminder: You can see the receptionist in Student Services to have your Husky card coded for access).
See current Collaborative Workspace availability.
Please enter and exit the Collaborative Workspace only through the door inside the locker room area. The secondary door (that exits to the area outside Public Grounds) must remain closed at all times for security reasons.
To protect the equipment in the Collaborative Workspace, no food is allowed. Drinks are allowed only in secured containers (travel mugs, etc.). Unsecured drink containers (disposable cups, etc.) are prohibited.
The use of cell phones is prohibited in the Collaborative Workspace.
Reservations and Drop-In Use
The two spaces furthest from the door are available for advance reservation. The space nearest the door is for drop-in use.
You can see current Collaborative Workspace availability and request reservations online. Reservations can not be made more than two weeks in advance and reserved times cannot be longer than three hours.
Time can be reserved for any day/time, however, reservations can only be made during business hours (8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday). Final weekend schedules will be posted after 4 p.m. on Fridays. Reservations received outside of business hours will be entered in the order they are received.
NOTE: To maintain exclusive access for Evans School students, we need to be able to prove the need for this space by providing accurate usage statistics to the University of Washington. Please log all hours of drop-in and extended use to ensure this space is available to Evans School students in future years.
Drop-in use by a group must be registered after the fact using the online form.
For both reserved usage and drop-in use, if there is no wait for the space, you may go over the three hour limit. If you extend use of a reserved space beyond three hours, please use the online form so we can track usage.
