When these audio-visuals and discussions are finished, the students must all sign the Wake Forest<br />
University Hazard Communication Training Log <strong>for</strong>m.<br />
* Lastly, the student must read the Basic Safety Rules <strong>for</strong> All Laboratories <strong>for</strong>m, sign it, and turn<br />
the signature page in to the Stockroom at check-in and pick up safety goggles along with an apron,<br />
cotton towel, and any missing equipment in their laboratory lockers. Throughout the semester,<br />
they are required to wear safety glasses/goggles/or side shields and obtain gloves from the<br />
stockroom window when hazardous chemicals are used <strong>for</strong> a particular experiment<br />
* One laboratory textbook <strong>for</strong> this course (Williamson, Kenneth L. Macroscale and Microscale<br />
Organic Experiments, 3rd edition, Houghton Mifflin Co., 1999) contains both normal-scale and<br />
micro-scale experiments, to cut down on the amount <strong>of</strong> hazardous chemical waste generated in<br />
theses labs. Chapter two, “Laboratory Safety and Waste Disposal,” is required reading <strong>for</strong> the<br />
students. It contains detailed in<strong>for</strong>mation on handling chemicals <strong>for</strong> the entire course. In addition,<br />
each experimental procedure in the book ends with a section entitled “Cleaning Up.” These<br />
contain specific waste disposal in<strong>for</strong>mation which are in all cases followed by the student as the<br />
last step in their experiments unless otherwise instructed by their T.A.‟s to follow the instructions<br />
listed by the Chemical Preparation Personnel or the Hazardous Waste Manual in the Departmental<br />
Chemical Hygiene Plan. The other textbook is titled The Organic Chem Lab Survival Manual and<br />
contains an excellent subsection in the first chapter titled “Disposing <strong>of</strong> Waste”. In addition to<br />
comments in the safety film and the Lab Instructor‟s waste guidelines <strong>for</strong> each experiment, these<br />
textbook chapters and safety film comments constitute the final training all undergraduate students<br />
receive in handling hazardous waste, unless they engage in Summer School undergraduate<br />
chemical research, in which case they are required to read the Departmental Chemical Waste<br />
manual in the Chemistry Department‟s Chemical Hygiene Plan and so certify by signing the .<br />
* The student will also be given, via the on-line Chemistry Dept web page, a handout listing<br />
Health Hazards <strong>of</strong> Some Common Chemicals to be consulted throughout the semester as specific<br />
in<strong>for</strong>mation regarding chemical hazards and toxicity. It is also listed on the next page <strong>of</strong> this<br />
manual.<br />
* Instructors and Chemical Preparation Personnel (graduate students preparing the chemicals<br />
used in the lab) occasionally write specific chemical dispensing instructions and special hazardous<br />
waste instructions <strong>for</strong> the T.A.‟s. These will be handed out during pre-lab lectures.<br />
Second semester Organic Chemistry (CHM 223L) students will receive the Emergency<br />
In<strong>for</strong>mation sheet, the Laboratory Safety and Regulations handout, the Basic Safety Rules <strong>for</strong> all<br />
Laboratories signature handout, and the electronically generated Bowman Gray Health Hazards <strong>of</strong> Some<br />
Common Chemicals.<br />
