The greenhouse at Wright State University is located near the Biological Sciences Building, attached to Fawcett Hall. The greenhouse is used for instruction, research and the maintenance of a permanent teaching collection. Temperatures are regulated mechanically using ridge vents, evaporative coolers and natural gas heaters that are controlled by computer. The greenhouse is also equipped with shade curtains and supplemental lighting. A student worker is responsible for the general maintenance of the greenhouse which includes watering and maintenance of the teaching collection, sweeping floors, maintaining general use equipment, and ordering general supplies, etc.
Researchers are responsible for their own watering and fertilization needs.
Researchers are responsible for their own projects from start to finish - Researchers are responsible for acquiring their own soil for experiments. Pots, flats, and some tools are available, but researchers are responsible for acquiring any specialized equipment and supplies needed for their projects. Soil and equipment that is unavailable for general use should be clearly marked as such.
