Your Cave is my Cave
You will need to get a key to the Douglass building and to the Cave. Go to Jennie to get the necessary paperwork. You will then take the paper work over to the key office (under the 6th street garage) and they will make your keys while you wait.
On-site Technology
As a graduate student in the department you have free use of the computers in the graduate student space called the Cave. These computers have internet access, MS Office, and a number of other programs of use to the grad student in general and the linguistics grad in particular.
We also have a printer, which is to be used frugally. Both paper and toner are expensive.
Each graduate student receives a personal copy code for personal photo-copying needs. The copier is located in the lounge upstairs on the first floor. Copies cost 3 cents a piece. You’ll receive a bill at the end of each semester requesting payment. If you’re a TA, you’ll get a class copy-code, to use free of charge for copies made for that class.
Responsibilities & Etiquette
The Cave is a happy place, a place for meeting and chatting with other students, and a place for working. It is the sanctuary for all students who need one, physically, mentally, socially, and perhaps even spiritually. Help to keep it this way.
Listservs
There are a number of listserves associated with the department. By default, you (a grad student) will be on LINGCIRCLE, LINGSTUD, and LINGUA.
You can also request being added to the CogSci listserve by contacting Nova Hinrichs (nhinrich@u.arizona.edu). Other departments may have other listserves which you may want to join according to your interests.
Listserve use: Please be prudent in your use of the listserves. LINGCIRCLE only addresses current linguistics graduate students. LINGSTUD addresses all linguistics graduate students (past and present) and undergraduate students as well. LINGUA addresses the linguistic community at large (including professors in and out of the department).
